The News I Am Breaking Will Leave Both of Us Shaking
It's so hard to catch my breath
Because I am scared to death
Not knowing what I will do
Or how I'm gonna make it through
Telling the love of my life
News to stab him like a knife
As I reveal what I heard
From a doctor saying words
Making my heart skip a beat
Wishing I could just retreat
Back to before I was shocked
And my entire world was rocked
Knowing all the things to be
Part of my new history
Medicine to take each day
Hair that will soon go away
Chemo that will make me sick
Hoping it will do the trick
To help me beat this bad disease
Praying to heaven "pretty please"
Make this go away so I
Will not have to live and die
At such a young stage of life
I want to be a loving wife
And great mom to kids ahead
I don't want to end up dead
Before my life has begun
Something needs to be done
For helping these stages of cancer
Someone needs to find an answer
