FADING

You're slowly disappearing,
And fading from my mind.
Who were you before all this?
I'm watching you unwind.

Memories of hours past,
Are fading fast to grey.
You cannot tell a story,
Without repeating what you say.

We gather all around you,
To shower you with love.
I hope someday you'll find yourself
As you look down from above.
