My Memory may waver
But my love will remain
In this world that is alien
I am still one of the same
I cannot remember sometimes
All the things that I should
However, I know I still love you
Like no one else ever could
So please do not forget me
Nor the person I once was
When you feel so frustrated
Please just stop for a pause
Look at the wonderment
And the fear in my eyes
Because of a world that is strange
Filled with whats, wheres, and whys.
Please put your arms around me
Guide me through the day and night
And tell me, my sweet child,
That everything will be alright.
