Evil Within

It came inside So silent and stealthy Not caring if I was Sick Or totally healthy It hid inside Unnoticed and unseen As if it were a ghost Malevolent and mean Waiting to attack And wreak havoc inside of me Destroying my body’s defenses Without remorse or pity It spread like the plague Infecting all in its path Spreading its sickness In the wake of its wrath My body is now ill But I'll not find a cure From this blackness within It’s the death of me for sure I don’t understand Guess I’ll never know the answer Why so many of us need to die Please find a cure for CANCER.
