Alzheimers
Of all the things that I regret
I can't recall
cos I forget.
Of all the things I've ever done
I don't recall
a single one.
They come and see me every day
I've lost my family
who were they ?.
I see no-point them coming up
I don't even recall
my favourite cup.
Of all the things I've ever lost
the loss of memory
was the greatest cost.
Of all the things that I regret
I can't remember
cos I forget.
