| The Alzheimer's Patient Oh, how can this be? You and I are losing me Some day soon May be morning May be noon I will no longer be the me You and I know as me, And the answer seems to be Words, and thoughts, frequently scramble And my conversations seem to ramble. Oh, how can this be? You and I are losing me. What do I see when I look into your eyes? And neighbors come just to pry? Confusion, hurt, pity, and pain For I am ill and not insane. Oh, how can this be? You and I are losing me? Oh, help me pray, "Lord, please come to me and take me Home with you for all eternity." What can we do to keep from losing me? "Nothing," say the experts. Oh, how can this be? You and I are losing me? But in my confused and foggy state, To You I plea, "Love me--Remember me--Help me To be--For as long as I can be The me we know as me." |
