Alzheimer's poem

Don’t ask me to remember,
Don’t try to make me understand,
Let me rest and know you’re with me,
Kiss my cheek and hold my hand,
I’m confused beyond your concept,
I am sad and sick and lost.

All I know is that I need you, to be with me at all cost.

Don’t lose patience with me,
Don’t scold, curse or cry,
I can’t help the way I’m acting,
Can’t be different though I try.

Just remember that I love you,
The best of me has gone,
Please stand beside me 'til my life is done.
