Forget Me Not

The choice was once
your choosing,
before losing
became my loss.
I was there in
your forgetting -
Until I was forgot.

My dad has been taken to a specialist dementia ward in hospital today as he'd become psychotic and a danger to himself and mum. My brother and I have been fighting for so long to get help and support and now, when it finally comes, it arrives at the worst possible time. No one can visit him and none of us know if we will ever see him again. Finding it just too painful to process at the moment.
