Head In the Clouds

My head was up in the clouds No daylight to be found. White and gray clouds covered my sight I could not see for my mind was in flight. I looked all around and all I could see Was the clouds covering me. I felt like I was in a plane And all the passengers seeing the same. So I know I’m not the only one Who feels this way Millions of people go through this From day to day. It doesn’t matter to you what The others are going through Just that it’s happening to you. You don’t like this feeling of being up in the air And with others your thoughts You can not share. Is this a sign of dementia or Alzheimer’s Disease ,And can I set myself free. They say “ the mind is a terrible thing to lose” It is not something that we choose. Will I forget my loved ones And everything that’s around Will I stumble and fall to the ground. Right now we still have our faculties But for how long will that be? So let us continue to write while we can For tomorrow we can not plan. Write everything that you think See and feel, for in the future Your mind may reel. Head up in the clouds? Who is to say. Until the medical fields find a better way.
