I used to be alive.
Anonymous Thomas
I used to be smart.
I used to be strong.
I used to be right, and
you used to be wrong.
I used to be brave.
I used to be safe.
Now I live in a cave.
Now I cannot even rhyme.
Now I forget.
Now I regret.
Now I get it.
I am slowly.
I am slowly forgetting.
Ah dementia has me demented.
I am slowly.
I am slowly dying.
Ah AIDS that little demon within me. That little curse brought by a nurse. That little thing that kills me.
I hate thee.
