Doors Within My Mind

doors in my mind
all I see is flashes of memory
I wish I could live with what I see
it is just not clear to me
can it be
I just lost my memory 
why can't I see
oh I forgot I had brain surgery
it was because I had a brain tumor
if I try real hard maybe I will see
where they left part of that tumor in me
I know if I see where they left part of that tumor in me 
then I just might keep my mind and not go blind

Brain Cancer/Brain Surgery/Diabetes
age:51
Now I have no pride and no place to hide
You took it all from me when you ask me to reveal all to you
on an appeal
