Alzhimer's Disease

Son, my mind is now full of holes So I moved the memories to my heart Locked them here and lost the key To treasure them before they part Hold my hand just like we used to This time you tell the stories to me Please remember how I've loved you In cherished moments that used to be One day soon I won't remember It will be impossible to comprehend I won't be able to recall your name Know if you are foe or my best friend They say I'll get angry without reason In a long, dark fog where I can't see Alzheimer's disease is a cruel robber A thief that steals all memory from me Quickly son, my best days are over A cloak of confusion visits everyday I can't find the words to express it Behind these tears so much to say I met a nice man early this morning He was a most kind and patient lad When he left he gently kissed me Said, "See you tonight, I love you dad,"
