[hometext] => all poems i write are related one way or another to alzheimers, a tragedy all need to be aware of
[bodytext] => our hearts are rendered helpless as we watch their bodies become lethargic and useless before our eyes people become tired or our cries and pleas so we turn silent they eventually turn their backs and walk away once more we cry the silent tears we know not where to turn no one can help they say that we begin to sound like a broken record but they cant seem to wear our shoes even one day they dont hear the repeated phrases day in day out once more we cry the silent tears people dont realize what you tell them is forgotten 5 min later or everytime you slip from sight they panic there is so much we deal with everyday that most poeple shy away from too much to bear once more we cry the silent tears they fail to realize this disease doesnt care today it is us but tomorrow may be them we try to tell them we try to warn them before it is too late and they become one of us once more we cry the silent tears [comments] => 0 [counter] => 149 [topic] => 39 [informant] => maryetta [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 0 [ratings] => 0 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => Grief )
