My head was up in the clouds <br />No daylight to be found. <br />White and gray clouds covered my sight <br />I could not see for my mind was in flight. <br />I looked all around and all I could see <br />Was the clouds covering me. <br /> <br />I felt like I was in a plane <br />And all the passengers seeing the same. <br /> <br />So I know I’m not the only one <br />Who feels this way <br />Millions of people go through this <br />From day to day. <br /> <br />It doesn’t matter to you what <br />The others are going through <br />Just that it’s happening to you. <br />You don’t like this feeling <br />of being up in the air <br />And with others your thoughts <br />You can not share. <br />Is this a sign of dementia or Alzheimer’s <br />Disease, And can I set myself free. <br />They say “ the mind is a terrible thing to lose” <br />It is not something that we choose. <br />Will I forget my loved ones <br />And everything that’s around <br />Will I stumble and fall to the ground. <br /> <br />Right now we still have our faculties <br />But for how long will that be? <br />So let us continue to write while we can <br />For tomorrow we can not plan. <br />Write everything that you think <br />See and feel, for in the future <br />Your mind may reel. <br />Head up in the clouds? Who is to say. <br />Until the medical fields find a better way.<br /><br />louis rams<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/to-all-poets-head-in-the-clouds/
