So thrives my soul.
Did I forget? Myself.
Have I tried, to forget me?
I might not have, but I attempted to find myself.

My midsummer nights are not as warm anymore
I lost something, something from inside of me, something that kept me warm
I feel more priceless now that hopeful, content though in my misery
(Demented laugh)
I saw something, or someone in the mirror
What is that? Oh! It’s me
Confusion transpiring through my mind
I feel Me awakening in my head
Get out! Get out at once!
Or, or ill jump! I promise you!
Wait, wait, I have a better idea
I will submerge myself in the sea of forgetfulness
Oh it feels so good too!
Nothing matters now, not even you Me.

Sooner than it should, the effects of the sea wash away
I can see now, clearer, sharper, and harsher
Accusations topple onto my head in my drunken stupor
I fall, but why? I did nothing.
Why do you punish!?
Why?! I love you, don’t i?
From that day forward until death do us part?
I guess I, I had to
I had to let death part us
So my soul could thrive, not Me

Dementia is not a case of being crazy, but one of fighting with your inner self.
