Canver-Vive
CANCER-VIVE
Trapped inside a living cell
Multiplying thoughts in mine’s a hell
This body is where my soul lives
Dread and illness is all it now gives
Swirling mind, makes out unreal
Hard to grasp it’s all surreal
Petrified at this diagnosis
Uncertain, of course, my future prognosis
God help me I’m scared you know
Images go flashing: a destructive torpido
All looks low, lonely and lost
Not certain now what life will cost
Re-vive!
My spirit vibrates eternally alive
Stronger than anything. I will survive!
Surrounded by colourful- sincere relation
Information bounds healing inspiration
My heart cries out to you all
Brave angels who will never fall
Valiantly I face an inner foe
I cancer-vive, and freely grow
