Insanity
It has arrived
full blown hatred
threats of suicide
physical attacks
mental attacks
total mayhem
There is no reason
shall I call EMTs
or the police or let
it all blow over
in the morning no
remembrance
Except I remember
everything as days
pass in misery over
and over and over
I try, I give, I do all
I can from love
Insanity doesn’t know
love and compassion
or appreciation for
what it takes to care
for a loved one with
Alzheimer’s Disease
It is a lonely journey
it is a thankless journey
it is a brutal journey
tomorrow it begins again
again the struggle to
survive another day
