THE FOG


I was cleaning out my computer and came across something that I wrote several yrs ago.  Thought I'd share..


The Fog....
The fog has taken you and enveloped the man I used to know.
Where are you?  How can I reach you?
I wonder through the fog with you, never finding you, only remembering the man that used to be.


The fog owns you, it has taken you from reality, from me.  I see you there, but it's not you, not the you I love.
I struggle everyday to remind myself that the man I love is still there, somewhere.  I struggle to recall that you love me, that you care for us as a family.


The fog bends your mind.  Like some evil being that takes over your thoughts and turns them into something that makes sence to only you.
An evil that tears us apart, causes tears, frustration and pain to those who love you.


The evil fog controls your life.  It truly wants everyone that loves you.  It mames all, it destroys hopes, dreams and happiness.  It has no age preference, it shows no mercy to a child's pain, or the bonds it destroys.


The evil fog takes hold of all who are near it, it tortures them, like a  demon, unseen and consuming.  There is no defense, no weapon, no amount of love will combat it.  It just leaves an ever aching, never ending feeling of loss.... and destruction of innocent souls..

Christy,

Thanks for sharing your writing. I also write short stories and poetry and know how intimately close to my heart my writing is for me.

Your piece is very good at portraying the anger and frustration we all deal with in this disease. Thanks again and keep writing!

Love and hugs,
Jessi

Thank you Jessi,


As I said, it's a few years old.  Thank HP I did find a defense and don't have to feel so overwhelmed by it anymore.
