Always There
Your life changed forever that day
Whether it is early or late stage
Whatever your prognosis
It is always on your mind
Whether you want it to be or not
You try to live happy
Grateful for the time you have been given
Soak up every second
Live your life
“like there’s no tomorrow”
“appreciate the little things”
“live each day like it’s your last”
You try...
You try to enjoy and be present in each moment and still
It looms in the back of your mind
It is front and center in theirs
