All Because of Me
I will creep into your brain
like a snake stalks its prey, slow, smooth.
I'll make your memory deteriorate.
People will say its just old age,
but guess what?
It's really me.
I will turn you against people.
Your family will cry.
Yelling
Tears
Fear
Rejection
All because of me.
I tear families apart.
You could call me a home wrecker,
but hey,
What are you going to do about it?
I have no cure,
your fate is inevitable.
I'll take the good part,
leave the bad for everyone to see.
Get ready for
Loneliness
Depression
Confusion
Fear
Anxiety
But hey,
It just wasn't me that did this,
you helped.
Rejection
Rejection
Rejection
All because of me.
Dementia
