Analysis of The Caregiver’s Pickle
I cannot break through.
Not yet.
Delusions and the voices
She will get.
Fears, insinuation
Crimes of mind.
No defense as sense
Left behind.
How to love
When charges
Come like rain.
How to heal
Affront and pain?
God we wed so
Many years ago.
Kids and caring.
Love her so.
