Cancer Diary

Cancer Diary

The cold winter air

Blows through my thick hair

And I become jealous

Of the free wind

 

No worries to way it down

No frets to even think about

Just blowing in from town to town

Only making mysterious sounds

 

As the wind whistles by my ears

I think about all the fears,

I feel for you.

 

You told me you were fine

And then I found out you lied

While you lay in the hospital day after day

And then you almost lost your leg.

 

The suspense was thrilling

In an odd sort of way

But the cancer was killing

You day after day

 

You’ve tried to convince

That you are getting better

But we all know

You’ve been getting worse since.

 

I try to face the facts

To tell myself it’s happening

But when I try to forget about him

I know there is no going back

 

He will also be struggling

And never be the same

And after this poem

No one will ever…forget his name.

 

His name is Jim

And the only reason I’m writing this

Is because today he almost lost a limb.

 

So bravo wind

As I sit my bed

Crying over him

You are traveling around

Without a worry in your head

Someday, as time moves on

And poor Jim is gone

I will hear his voice

Whisper to me through the wind

And even when he departs

His memory will still be alive.

 

                       Stay Strong to all fighting the battle of cancer.

Author's Note

I'm sorry to all that have lost, and Stay strong to all fighting through
