Denial's Due
Unable to hold for a simple task,
without flittering away, distracted!
Day to day life becoming impacted,
altering the most basic lifestyle,
Yet, loved ones close their eyes in denial:
It's just been a rough day, or a rough week,
It’s just exhaustion that hides what you seek,
Those words, and memories, faces and names,
They hide deep in the shadows all the same,
Showing themselves with the tiniest slips,
But not enough for the tongue or the lips…
And it just gets worse in denial’s wait,
Until it’s acknowledged… often too late.
