The Cruelest Irony of Cancer Ja Pointed Out Ever So Succinctly
Is the cruelest of all cancers ironies ?
Not that it is to be met
or end in death ?
Nor the suffering the disease itself
inflicts ?
On both the terminal and those left ?
But rather how it brings us together
than ever before ?
Unfortunately to late ?
And how the every day to day things we
once found a chore or mundane we
have since ironically learned to cherish ?
This poem is written in gratitude and
thanks to a comment posted by
J.A on what is really precious
and worth valuing in life
