My body and my mind



My body and my mind

Both has faded slowly over time

My body and my mind

The world has taken so much, but these are still mine

My body and my mind

I fight to control you both as I clearly see the signs

My body and my mind

I move slower and take even more time

My body and my mind

I will keep fighting until a cure they will find

My body and my mind

My hand is shaking as I try to compose this rhyme
