Cancer

The light and the shadows They play a game with me The dreamy sun Silent in its state Yet you rose up and fought against Those dirty fangs of cancer That pierced your skin mercilessly I prayed to God, prayed hard for help The truth is spoken at times like this It's a thin thread that will not hold long When tears come down my face Can you believe how much you touched My life? My mind? Ah! My heart aches A strong young woman blossomed Couldn't bear to see Those foul demons took her away From here I'm lost and alone Wasting away at the bottom of an endless lake Shaking hands reach out for nothing Taking to the bars so these sweeties will talk back to me This dream seems unreal sometimes Cherry cheeks flashy smile Twinkle in her eyes I wish I could witness One more time .
