Metaphorical version of, 'You're dying '

Metaphorical version of, 'You're dying....' I’m Cancer, creeping from the shadows of hell, A curse unleashed, where darkness dwells. No lying, I’m here, your silent dread, I thrive in your fear, where hope has fled. I’m happy, you’re crying, your tears fuel my fire, Years fighting, years trying, yet I never tire. I set in deep, roots of despair, A shadowy curse, a nightmare’s snare. You’re dying, no denying, I tighten my grip, A relentless force, a sinking ship. For over half, death’s the only escape, Swift and merciless, or a slow, agonizing fate. I’m the storm in your veins, the darkness in your soul, A relentless beast, taking its toll. I thrive in your fear, your silent screams, A curse from the abyss, shattering dreams. I’m the shadow in the night, the dread in your eyes, A relentless plague, a master of disguise. I’m Cancer, no lying, I revel in your pain, A dark cloud, a relentless, unending rain. Years fighting, years trying, yet I never tire, I’m happy, you’re crying, your tears fuel my fire. You’re dying, no denying, I tighten my grip, A relentless force, a sinking ship. In the depths of despair, I reign supreme, A curse from the shadows, a dark, twisted dream. I’m Cancer, no lying, I revel in your pain, A dark cloud, a relentless, unending rain.
