Do I Know You

( DO I KNOW YOU ) Hi Grandma, How are you today? Hello Honey, Do I know you? Yes Grandma, it's me. This is how we start each conversation and end it too. I'm sorry, do I know you? You used to ask about school. Now it's, do I know you? We use to discuss my future plans or the trips you and gramps would plan. Now I talk and on your response I can depend. You were so active and full of joy. Now you seem sad and angry. For my visits you were so glad. Now for the distraction you seem mad. I too am mad at this disease that has us all so sad. I'm sorry I disturbed you. I'll be going now. Excuse me, do I know you? Isn't it sad? (c) Jasmine Paul 11-18-2014
