I have been told to try and write thoughts and feelings down as part of my therapy for stress caused by caring for my mum with vascular dementia. So I gave it a go, Im a bit wooden at this so apologies but thought I would share!

You look so sad sitting there in your chair
You look so frail I can see your bones
I really wish you didnt feel so alone
Your eyes meet mine and glisten with tears
I wish I could take away all your fears
"Where's Wendy" you ask and again I sense fear
and as I take your hand I say "I'm here mum right here"
and as we sit like this as we often do
I truly wish my dreams could come true
and that you were here again as it used to be
and me a child feeling safe on your knee
I miss you mum with all my heart
and it hurts me so I feel distraught
your breathing slows and you fall to sleep
dreaming of days gone by when you were free.

So heartfelt!
For what it's worth, you have my empathy and support.

I hope you feel better soon and you will.
Not today, maybe not tomorrow...but you will...I believe it.

I'm still trying also...

That was beautiful and made me cry. I lost my Mom in October. They are so precious, and so much a part of us and we hate to see them going trough anything bad. My heart goes out to you and your Dear Mother.

You don't sound wooden at all. That was your raw emotion and although it is sad, it's a beautiful poem. Much peace to you -nat
