DEMENTIA

It's hard when your parent can't remember Your parent seems like they have surrender You speak to your parent,and they don't understand I guess you can say this was never planned You sit with your parent and hold their hand And you look in their eyes to try to make them understand I guess I was never prepared I'm so scared, but for my parent, I will always care In the end, I will be lost without you Each day I hope for some breakthrough I have to remember never to lose my patience She was my only parent, and she was always gracious You will never have to face this disease alone We together will fight these unknown My promise is that I will always keep you safe My love for you I will always embrace Nothing will ever stand in our way I know with our prayers everything will be okay
