KALIEDOSCOPE

Untitled Poem

Life goes by, time ticks fast,

I wanted to be with you forever at last,

Never wanted to see you go, the way you did

Wish you could have seen me grow from being a kid

Watching you forget who  I was

It was like watching my dog go while holding his paws

Seeing my mom cry, as she knew there was no hope

It made me feel like I was walking on a tightrope

I prayed and prayed for your mind to heal

The way this disease would change someone was unreal

I never knew when it would be my last time seeing you

It always felt like I was stuck on glue

The day my mother told me you passed

Made me feel like I was in a dream at last

Without you here by my side

Makes me feel like my heart has shriveled and died

But now I know you are out of pain

You are watching over us in heaven, with the confusion out of your brain.
