Can you hear, I need you
I promise I'm trying call aloud
Can you see, I need you
I promise I'm trying wave my hand
Can you feel, I need you
I promise I'm trying to touch your arm
Can you tell, I need you
I promise I'm not calm
I sit in the corner silent and still,
People see I'm mentally ill,
Physically gone,
Actions, I have none
But I promise I'm not gone
So next time I need you,
Remember to take time
As I may not be perfect but I'm still alive
Years of hope, times of regret
We all live for the future,
Destiny takes care of the rest

I haven't been on for a while, but yes, it was related to my nan who suffered with Alzheimer's for 4 years. It was a horrible, very slow disease, which is horrible to watch and even worse to imagine what they go through. It's indescribable. But thank you for the views on this poem. I do like to read it back when I think of her. Thank you.
