Cancer

The dancer leaps across the stage
Dancing his way acrost the sun
Loving every moment
Until a star shines brighter than all
He searches in the crowd for a boy
He knows is there
He first finds his mother and his sister,
But he isn't looking for them.
He searches for the boy who burns as a thousand suns.
His eyes land on his brother,
This is the performance for him, 
The last one he may see.
