I’m inspired by you

At the age of two you showed

Your strength and courage

Always had a smile

Even through all of the pain

You comforted me

At the age of three

Knowledge far beyond your years

You grew up too fast

Cancer took your life

You reached and took the Lord’s hand

Leaving us with faith

For just one short year

You amazed so many souls

My David, my son

Again years later

Your father suffered your fate

Cancer struck again

Like you he inspired

Showed me his strength and courage

He never let on

Pain enveloped him

I’d ask, has the pain worsened

No buddy, he’s say

Up until the end

He never cried out in pain

His last word, Amen

Yes, I’ve been inspired

By my son and my husband

Both reached out to God
