Lost in Space
Somewhere in the space between my ears
A disease engulfed my mind these years
Causing confusion, memory loss
Distorting perceptions is the cost
Like a rocket lost in outer space
My conscious mind cannot keep the pace
My daily life is full of black holes
Swinging my moods between two hard poles
My universe has shrunk to my home
Stars and moons can hear my nightly moans
I dread the sleepless nights watching time
Lost in my thoughts I can’t calm my mind
Parkinson’s disease will run its course
I still try to fight feeling remorse
My creativity keeps me going
Art and poetry I am showing
