Twinkle, Twinkle Little Star

Twinkle , twinkle little star how I wonder who you are it seems I can not remember the day or month or the year Alzheimer's is the word my doctor said , that what I hear. Twinkle, twinkle little star how I wonder what your name does this word mean I am going insane? it seem I pick up a fork to eat but I think it a spoon, my family don't understand me I feel out of tune. Twinkle, twinkle little star I hide in my room please don't ask me to come out don't you all understand I am forgetting what this worlds all about. like each bright star up in the dark sky I only can make out certain things now everything seem scary and I still don't know why. Twinkle, twinkle little star soon I will be place in a nursing home for it will be unsafe of me to be out and about but don't worry I will not care. God always with me, because he shines a light for me from way up stairs. Every night the glow from the moon and the stars above keep watch over people like me who know not what the day ahead, or can not remember the words to them you may of said. Twinkle, twinkle little star
