An Unwanted Angel: Crispulo Tappa

You've been knocking at my

mind's door

Like an angel in disguise, so

adorable

Would I let you in or just shut

you out

But how could I do that to

an angel?

So come sit by my side, let

us talk

Could you tell me why I

should?

If you come and take over

my mind

What is it for me to gain or

lose?

So do tell me now and keep

it up front

Must I give in to your wishes

that I forget;

The memories that I cherish

in life?

The people who have been

part of it?

Must I surrender my life to

you?

No. No. No. It shouldn't happen

to me

This is what I'm gonna do, I'm a poet,

you see

I'll write a poem a day to keep

Alzheimer's away.
