Cancers Pain

Today I feel alone in this world,
Although my families all around me, 
Some just don't understand, or can even see, 
How this disease is growing in me, 
They say they love me, they say they care, 
But sometimes I see them just sit and stare,
 
I try to hold this pain deep inside, so no one knows, 
But sometimes I feel, that my hands are tied, 
I'm just not ready, to give up and die, 
I pray the doctors can heal, this cancer inside, 
Sometimes I feel I have lost everything,
My wife, my life, and even my kids, 
I feel so alone and deserted,
They just don't know how bad it hurts, 
I just can't think of a time, I felt so in need,
But I pray they understand, how much I need them here with me.
