Do You Remember Me?
A Father with Alzheimer's
The greatest computer ever made
Cannot match the brain’s complexity
Holding decades
of information
Yet I’m not sure you remember me
All those childhood memories I cherish
All those stories, sitting on your knee
Gaining
wisdom from your tales of life
But Daddy, do you remember me?
Some days your spry eyes are bright and clear
Other times they are
dull and cloudy
But will you know who I am today?
Your daughter… do you remember me?
My heart breaks to pieces when I see you
Check
your bracelet for your identity
But it’s like a knife thrust to my heart
When you don’t even remember me
I need to look deep within
myself
To see my egocentricity
Because it hurts to see you so lost
Yet I cry when you don’t remember me
Whether it’s a good day
or bad day
I hope that you’ll be able to see
That I will love you no matter what
Even if you don’t remember me
