Letter From Her Loving Husband
Dementia has stolen part of her from me
But also, from herself
I cannot complain; she lives a partial life daily
I am thrilled the days the sun is out
When her soul returns
Even if it is but for one brief moment
It is enough for me
Because it has to be enough for her
Much of her has been swirled away in dementia’s cloak
but on warm sunshine filled days
sometimes there is a glimmer
And that is enough
I would rather have a glimmer of her
Than the whole caboodle of anyone else
Our love will last until the last day
Signed: Her Forever Husband
