Live Your Life
No one should have to go through what you’re going through alone
So, I’ll go with you to see whoever you want to see.
I’m always here to talk, whether in person or on the phone.
Whether good news or bad, you can always confide in me.
Don’t assume the worst about your given situation.
Things aren’t always the way they seem on the outside.
Our bodies were made to heal since the days of creation.
Just keep your heart strong, and it will take care of the inside.
I’ve known you for a while now, and I know you’re a bit shy,
So, I’m proud to have been chosen as one of your friends.
There’s a lot on your mind, but as time passes by
You’ll look beyond to what’s coming around the bend.
It’s times like these that you may want to ask why…
Why is it cancer with which you have been stricken?
The answers that come back, for you, will not satisfy.
But don’t give up hope, because it can be beaten.
Don’t worry about what the doctors tell you.
Being straight-forward is the only way they know.
Try to stay positive, and no matter what else you do,
Live your life and don’t ever say the word the no.
