A poem about dementia
Lost by Sim Smailes
Nonet Poetry Contest contest entry
Artwork by avmurray at FanArtReview.com

Dementia is the cruellest of foes,
Choosing its victims at random
It hides unseen, biding time;
Early signs are shrugged off,
Confusion brings fear,
Then detachment,
As loved ones
Fade from
View.
