Don't Forget Them - A Poem By: Dave

DON’T FORGET THEM

I’m dancing with the devil
That lives inside my head

It turns the days of happiness
Into sadness, fear, and dread

Motivation will not happen
Need to get out of this place

Have to mitigate the damage
Need a change of pace

Surrounded by the despair
Of folks with little hope

Watching people fade away
It’s sometimes hard to cope

I try to remain strong
Help the ones I can

It hurts me to the core
I’m just an ordinary man

With nobody here to comfort them
That job it falls on me

To let them know that someone cares
Show them some dignity

Until the day I leave here
I will take on many scars

I watch over your loved one
Until their flying in the stars

It’s not the job I wanted
Your absence made this true

The loved one you forgot in here
Only needed you
