Ernesto P. Santiago Poet Lyric

For Little Sunshine, I Fight To Stay Alive!

How many more… 
Days and nights I must stay,
Inside this howling building, where 
I pray alone, and 
Waiting for my little morning sunshine?

How many more… 
“How are you, today?” I need 
To hear,
From faceless souls, 
Telling me not to cry or fear?

Ahh, my health’s been crumpled, 
But, not my spirits;
Thou I feel bereft and in pain, 
I surrender not;
Come on Doc; pump this Cancer out of me!
