Act normal.
What does it mean?
I have emotions.
I'm not a machine.
I can't turn off
my feelings or dreams,
for I am who I am,
as my heart beams
for those I love.
It's not what it seems.

Where are these dreaded words
coming from, as my hands write free?
Are these the thoughts, in my head
or mind, as I watch them flee.
Must I admit or just relent
from these words which come from me?
It's time to let go of this life,
leavingthe sadness to all of thee.

This life is amazing.
This life is a blast,
for these inked word,
absolutely will not last.
Gone on the morrow.
No more to be seen.
Written by hand,
not a machine.

I am not a genius,
of this I am aware.
I'm just filling space
as I sit upon my chair.

When the body rejects
the food put in your mouth,
does this have any meaning,
as your life's trending South?

I apologize for writing
about my love or disdain.
For writing of words,
relieves not the fear or pain,
so I will write words to you,
for this is my way, it's what I do.

I have so many flaws,
I won't name them for you,
for my flaws can be more
or they may be a few.
Depends on who you talk to
or these flaws you see,
our mine; I know not of thee.

It was big.
It was dark,
blotting out the Sun.
I was cornered here,
no where to run.
The fear which comes
to you, on a lonely night,
is yours to deal with,
Yours to fight.

My balance is gone,
there goes my chance,
to go on stage,
to sing and dance.
My skill sets gone,
left in the car,
no longer can I be
a singing, dancing star.

Out of the darkness,
it came.
A warm breath of air,
with rain,
to wet the dry earth
and tame,
the day of hot rays,
not blame,
as new life grew
and became,
a greener life for all,
no shame.

If sickness comes to our door,
I'll send it packing. No more
of illness, in this our home.
Go someplace else. Leave us alone.

If I swim,
will I sink?
Does it depend
on food or drink?
Stupid questions,
invading my mind.
I'm confused, any time.
I will go away.
I am on alert,
for those warning signs.
Dementia, creeping in on me;
no history in my family.
