Stolen Memories
On the days that you forget me
If what they say is true,
That when it steals your memories
I'll still be loving you.
If what they say is true
You'll not perceive the strange,
I'll still be loving you
No matter what the change.
You'll not perceive the strange
When I've faded from your mind,
No matter what the change
When you leave your world behind.
When I've faded from your mind
In Alzheimers deadly grasp,
When you leave your world behind
My love remains steadfast.
In Alzheimers deadly grasp
That when it steals your memories
My love remains steadfast
On the days that you forget me.

Thank you for your comments Checkmate:
It had taken me several months to finish this poem, every time I tried working on it I would burst into tears. I was finally able to put it all together, without falling apart at the seems.
Your comment was greatly appreciated. I knew there would be other readers who can relate with this poem, and I wanted to share it.

Dear Sally,
Yes, alot of us can relate. This was beautifully executed, and I am so sorry. I believe also choosing the pantoum was a perfect choice to lay down that pain with. The title could not be more fitting. Thank you Sally for sharing this poem.
