My very worst fear is of losing my mind -
Dementia and Alzheimer’s are so unkind
No longer able to function as I once could
Unable to make myself clearly understood
Not understanding the simplest news
Being unable to express my own views
Trapped inside my head which becomes a prison cell
This would be my idea of a living hell
Unable to recognise family and friends
A shadow of my former self that only death ends
