This Cancer Thing

I lie here awake,I just can't sleep. The things,I think about, are just to deep. I pray to god,my soul to keep. I should look,before I leap. I tossed and turned, and tried my best. I really did Lord, try to rest. I thought,and thought, I must confess. I just failed,your very best test. This cancer thing, isn't that easy. It makes my stomach very queezy. I get tired and weak. I just can't speak. By the end of a week, I have reached my peak. I have so much,I need to do. But, most of it Lord,I do for you. I need a break,for everyones sake. My soul is not ready, for God to take. So, please bare with me and help me fight this thing. Into my life,peace you will bring.
