Slipping Away

She sits and plays her computer games Sometimes she does not remember names Of the people she plays with every day A little at a time her memory slips away Cannot remember what she did yesterday As she slips further into her mind She leaves all her memory behind And she knows one day the time will come When she wont remember anythig or anyone Today she knows the years are slipping by As she sits and wipes the tear from her eye Each day she seems to go further away Until one day thats where she will stay carolann crowley 3/24/2012
