Poem
I'll never forget watching the color drain from your face the day you were diagnosed I turned into a ghost myself, it's one of the days I hated the most Dreadful were the thoughts of seeing you suffer Yet, the willpower you showed was so much tougher Your body was weak, the the cancer was taking its toll Who would have thought something like this would have become of a mole? The chemo treatments made you so sick My head was spinning,it all happened so quick I felt so helpless and shocked, this couldn't be real I was so saddened you always seem to get the raw end of the deal Oh dear Lord please spare the one I love Please shine down some hope and strength from up above I wanted so badly to take away all of your pain There was so much to lose and nothing to gain This awful disease was slowly killing you I was never quite as strong as you and tried to hide that it was killing me too You were in remission,but the cancer came back Through it all I was amazed by the beautiful smile you were still able to crack You fought your battle so hard for so long Yet, your heart still danced to a beautiful song You were a beautiful soul both inside and out Strong, brave and courageous described you without a doubt There was nothing about any of this that was at all fair Unfortunately,cancer doesn't seem to care No one will ever really understand why Once a colorful butterfly now as a beautiful angel you spread your wings and fly high I prayed so hard for a different answer In life and in death our love will always be stronger then cancer
