Watching Alzheimers Take Over

Folder: 
Alzheimers

frustrated
angry

i don't understand
i don't get it

why is this happening
why do they forget

hurt
anxious

i don't want this
i can't take this

how am i supposed to understand
how am i supposed to cope

sad
depressed

i don't want to deal
i don't wnt to know

why can't i stop remembering
why can't i stop crying

resigned
dying
