Bad Things, Good People
They say bad things,
Happen to good people.
They are right.
She's a good person,
One of the best.
Even more amazing,
Than all the rest.
Yet it happened to her.
She's fighting hard,
Not willing to loose.
Does she have a card,
Up her sleeve for this?
No one could,
Because no one,
Could be ready for this.
No, not you,
And no not me.
It's not something,
Anyone could have seen.
I pray so hard,
Asking others as well.
Do I have to scream,
Do I have to Yell?
I will if that is what it takes,
For her to be well.
What can I do?
I'll do ANYTHING
If it means,
She gets to spread her wings,
And live freely once more.
She inspires me,
Keeping spirits high.
And now all i can do,
Is simply ask why.
Why was she given,
This horrible curse?
I simply do not understand.
dedicated to my aunt.
