Welcome to Gaia! :: View User's Journal | Gaia Journals

My hair's abandoned from my body
The chemo's never-ending
Breathing is so much agony
My heart is far from mending

I think my love is crying
For he counts the days to go
Until the last light grows dim
And until my heart begins to slow

I cannot do much to comfort,
Can't speak what I think of my pain
Because I don't want to scare the ones I love
But it scares us all the same

I'm so sick of meds and pills
Why? Did I deserve to die?
My hands tremble and heart quakes
And still I cannot cry

I must be strong now
And keep everything together
I will keep a straight face
Even through this bad weather

It's so hard to keep my head up
But I will win this game without quit
I will endure whatever God throws at me
Because I can take a hit

I look at their faces
And thank God for the times I had
Hoping one day I will speak the words,
"Cancer free, and glad"
