B Alzheimers

Vacant eyes that stare
Not knowing who you are
We who shared much precious love
You ask me who amI

I am your wife of many years
We shared life's joy and pain
And now you look with vacant eyes
No memories now to fade

Your silent sob that breaks my heart
A mind that is of child
Understanding very few things
I wonder where you are

But I remember laughter
And I'll keep our love alive
I will save the memories
In the channels of my mind
