Slipping Away

My mind is slipping away from me by the seconds

I cant even focus to listen to the record

My mind is going a 100 miles a minute

I feel like I am out of control and spinning

My mind is slipping away from me by the minute

I don't feel like I can be independent

The things I use to do for myself, requires so much more energy and breath

My mind is slipping away from me by the hour

I feel like a wilted flower

My petals are falling off and I am losing my strength

My mind is slipping away from me by the days

I feel like I am in a maze

I feel so lost and confused

I get agitated just looking for a pair of shoes

My mind is slipping away from me by the months

I am have forgotten a whole bunch

What is my name, I ask myself

My Mind is Slipping away from me

I have Dementia
