Another day in the confusion
dealing with dementia,
just can't seem to figure life out...
the last time someone told the truth
I can't remember.
I can't stay on task
I'm in daze
trying to find the answer,
I'll never break through
on this strange pursiut
because
I always forget what I was thinking.
I got only one friend
and he doesn't really like me
he"s on the stage in lifes game
while I perfer to stay the shadows,
and
things like that blow mind....
because for some reason
that I can't figure it out
there's a need for us to have a connection.
There was a moment
when I thought I had it
but it quickly faded away
as a new emotional torture came alive
once again distracted.
I live in a wiggly world
where there is always pain
and I
I will continue to search for the reason
for the reason
I need something to believe in
as I am trapped on this crazy roundabout.

I take so much away from this poem. It is brilliant. I feel like.....if my dear 80~something year old grandmother could put her life into words, this poem would be it. Thank you.
Best,
Fox |

Dizzying circles…unable to concentrate…distracted.."I'll never break through.." I can identify with this!
Stay with it. There is always a reason. When I was 13 I babysat a retarded child next door. I hated it.
When I was 30, I gave birth to a retarded child--I was better prepared. She is my angel, too retarded to know it. There is always a reason. Delayed? Learning patience. Blocked? learning to go around. In Pain? Learning endurance. When all is going well= we don't grow. However, wish you a restful period of dormancy!!! Come back and write with a vengeance.

I like the way you closed this write- nice! It sure can seem like things aren't moving, or at least not in the direction we hoped, but change occurs over time. Keep plugging away and know that you are on the right path. Roundabout or not, your "turn" will come.

This was very tough to read. so tough that I had read it last night but was unable to comment because it unsettled me so much as it reminded me of my Mom and when she had dementia. Now that's poetry in action.
Great poem!!!!
Thanks,
Tim |
