There’s this moment in my head
This piece of time in my heart
That rings of fear, fear in its purest form
It is not of death, nor of violence or pain
It is not of ghosts or darkness or demons
It is a very real fear, one life must go on with
I fear that moment, my heart dreads it always
When I look into the eyes of a woman
The only woman who is queen of my heart
When I tell her that I love her
When I reminisce with her hand in hand
When we walk down the road
When I hug her or help her to stand
When I kiss her on the cheek and the forehead
When I read the Bible by her side
When I tuck her into bed
When I comfort her at night
When I cry a million tears
Which she may never notice
When I yell a million times
Or scream, all but one will know this
When I hold her face in my hands
And beg her to remember
Remember, remember, remember, remember
But she won’t remember, because she can’t
That’s the moment I fear, you see
When she won’t know my name
When she forgets what she’s done for me
When she can’t remember her memories
That’s the moment I fear, you must know
When she won’t know her own name
When she forgets what I’ve done for her
When she can’t remember I love her
Though I beg her eyes with mine, “Do you remember me?”
I’ll hide what hurts the most deep inside
And lay my memories on her forehead with a kiss
I’ll love her totally, and in the Almighty confide
