Talking To Cancer
I have become what you have made of me
A setting stillness in the air
You fail to see how much I’ve changed
I am here, just trying to say
I am afraid and you are deranged!
As my thoughts now thundered
And my pain meandered
And so you sauntered, at free will
You were a savage who ravaged
As you held your weapon of pain to my head
Until you try to make sure I am dead
You tried to make me crazy
But the bullet I bit, made you hazy
I over came you, and made you lazy
Till you vanished without a trace!
2.6.2021 FIRST PLACE
For my sister who fought breast cancer and
overcame it.
