Nor for the fear that burns within.

Don/'/t remember the abominations that haunt the corner of my

Bedroom and bring terror to my eyes!

Nor the serpent coiled tightly squeezing my life breath.

Don/'/t remember me as the reason to cross the road, the mirror of
Your own fears.

Nor the mouth of butterflies as words elude me.

The constant antagonist of verbal impermeability.

Don/'/t remember the weakness of the prey, slowly and deliberately

Brought to its knees!

Remember me for my smile of resilience and my face of determination!

Remember me for the smile I gave you!

For the calm and solace as music soothed my brow and calmed my soul.

Don/'/t remember my unholy Union with Dementia in which I am not my own.

Nor when unkindness slammed the door!

Don/'/t remember the struggle but every step of courage.

Nor the difficult days by every brave breath I took.

For without choice I face the dawn!

Don/'/t remember me for life/'/s cruel and twisted path,

Nor for the fear that burns within.

Don/'/t remember the abominations that haunt the corner of my

Bedroom and bring terror to my eyes!

Nor the serpent coiled tightly squeezing my life breath.

Don/'/t remember me as the reason to cross the road, the mirror of
Your own fears.

Nor the mouth of butterflies as words elude me.

The constant antagonist of verbal impermeability.

Don/'/t remember the weakness of the prey, slowly and deliberately

Brought to its knees!

Remember me for my smile of resilience and my face of determination!

Remember me for the smile I gave you!

For the calm and solace as music soothed my brow and calmed my soul.

Don/'/t remember my unholy Union with Dementia in which I am not my own.

Nor when unkindness slammed the door!

Don/'/t remember the struggle but every step of courage.

Nor the difficult days by every brave breath I took.

For without choice I face the dawn!
