Tick tock
I seem to have forgotten
where I left my specs
Gotta work around the blur
Tick Tock
Did I take my meds?
Can't find them anyway
What's my number again?
Written down on a scrap somewhere
What's the name of that face I should know?
I know I knew it not too long ago
It seems lately
these gaps are happening
with greater regularity
My brain seems to be dripping
snippets of my mind
as in rolls the dementia fog
The insidious onslaught
of cognitive decline
Soon I won't even realize
how far gone I am
In the end
it will be better this way
Blissful self ignorance
waiting on the final darkness
to liberate me from this nightmare
