My strength is gone,

No way to move on.

Shoot me,

I don't care,

I'm not going anywhere.

What's wrong with me?

Problem is,

She filled me with glee,

And now she's all,

A memory.

Not dead but worse,

She can't remember a thing,

Including me.

No reason to get up,

My heart aches.

The author's comments:

This talks about how when you lose someone through memory loss it hurts more than death because when you go to see them, they say, who are you? It hurts and I want everyone to know your not fighting this battle alone, many are in the same boat.

"I want a life that sizzles and pops and makes me laugh out loud. I want my everyday to make God belly laugh, glad that he gave life to someone who loves the gift, who will use it up and wring it out and drag it around like a favorite sweater." -SN

(complicated semi-spiritual emotional story.)<br /> <br /> "Upon his bench the pieces lay<br /> As if an artwork on display<br /> Of gears and hands<br /> And wire-thin bands<br /> That glisten in dim candle play." -Janice T., Clockwork[love that poem, dont know why, im not steampunk]
