Not Cancer
‘Cancer is not for me!’ June screamed
This is the nightmare that she dreamed
Staring at her reflection in the mirror
For this to happen is her worse fear
Maintaining her attractive thin waist
Dressing in style with impeccable taste
Mountain hiking working up a heart rate
An all-natural healthy diet she ate
Alaska where air is clean winter is wet
More than unlikely for her to expect
Anything other than feeling her best
Certainly not a lump on her breast
For her family it was devastating to hear
For her it was sad and crystal clear
Now a soul lost in the feeling of doom
On a gray cloud not present in the room
Opening a brewery her new life adventure
A future of health and wealth not cancer
Married her true love career on the rise
Onlookers see peace and love in their eyes
June and Stephen’s love is concrete
Because of their bond this will be beat
Forget lost hope forget lost faith
With each other cancer has no face
Their true love will conquer and destroy
With positive thought it will bring back joy
Remember the indisputable power of each kiss
And all that will remain in the future is bliss
