The musings of a insomniac Poet!


Let's see; what's on my mind?
Bearing in mind this is on my phone,
Later to be added to my website.

Just another day in the depth of my mind...
********************

I woke Up Today Feeling Sad!

I woke up today feeling sad,
With Mum so much on my mind...
I try my best to be positive, I do,
But sadness is all I can find.
Into retreat, inside her head;
A little lost soul is she...
Heartbreaking, it really is,
And it's just about killing me!

She looks like a fragile little doll,
Weighing now just about 3 stone,
No over dramatisation is that,
So lost, and looking so alone.
But you see; she doesn't know me...
I'm a mere nurse, just another face!
Unrecognised most of the time,
Invisible; in an empty space.

I look at her and my heart breaks,
For this mother whose thoughts are lost,
Deep inside, hidden far away,
We, on oblivious waves are tossed.
So frail she lays in her bed;
Thinking I'm another nurse...
Old age and dementia...
I can't think of anything worse.

So store up the memories of loved ones,
Never be afraid to show that love,
For our mothers won't always be here.
They are loaned to us from He, above.
I cherish each day I have her here;
And savour each and every memory...
Until the day comes to pass; any time,
She'll no longer be with me...

The clock is ticking so fast!
Her final day is very soon due,
So tell the person you love; that you love!
Before they are swept away from you...

The musings of a sad Poet...
