Your heart heals her wounds

As she trusts for the first time.

Scars peeling away.

Called his daughter whore.

Nightmares become memory

As she wakes in sweat.

Further Conditions of Alzheimer’s

White mass on your brain

And you, brother, far away.

The pain sears my heart.

Angels’ Wings

Falling asleep wrapped

In the warmth of angels’ arms

Knowing we are loved.

Cut the loneliness like shards

In her waiting heart.
