A Tribute To Breast Cancer

Today, I take this walk A walk for the cure I will stand for the ones Who sees life as a blur Finding out the the most devastating news Feeling upset,hurt and confused A disease that affects the body It makes you feel strange Adapting to A new life Adapting to A new change Chemotherapy, radiations So many trials and tribulations My heart goes out to what you're facing I'll wear this ribbon ?? with pride And if you ever need a friend I'll be right by your side It takes a lot to understand That this illness wont get the upper hand A transformation you did go through Losing your hair, wearing wigs this is something new No longer knowing who you are In our hearts you're still a star It takes Courage, even when you feel discouraged It takes faith, even when you cant see clear You are our Hope From the climbing of a rope You are the strength You are strong You fought this battle But not alone A moment of silence Goes to the ones who didn't survive You were great We'll continue to keep your legacy alive I salute you, yes I do No more suffering or pain We release these balloons In honor and remembrance of your name With these two feet I walk for You Susan G. Komen and so many others You are my inspiration You have did everything its taken You're amazing this is true The Illness cant get the best of you Women oh no ?? this is not just for you Men are known to get it to I love you and you have all my respect Do me a favor everyone please go get checked!!!!!!
