The Signature

Something so strong changes a life,
no matter if it's wrong or right.
It knows no color or age,
the signature is on the page.
Cancer is it's given name,
it has no ties to sorrow or shame.
One is bound by it's spell,
upon it we will not dwell.
This persons name we may not know,
inside their beauty always shows.
A chosen one we know not why,
pray to God, stay by their side.
Every night, every day,
touch them in a special way.
