Cancer, the big 'C',
Do you think you mean anything to me?
My Uncle has got you,
You've taken my beautiful daughter too.
But while I am able I will continue to fight,
And I will fight you with every bit of my might.
Slowly we are finding new ways,
To get rid of you and we will make sure you finally pay.
I want to beat you, I want you to feel awful pain as you slowly feel your life fade away.
I hope that you have others that rely on you,
So as you painfully go they can feel the pain to.
I know that at the moment you can sneak and hide away, and I bet you feel exceptionally strong,
But all of mankind are waiting for you to do just one thing wrong.
Then we will pounce, we'll punch and we will stab,
And all of this done in a shiny white lab.
So don't sit there and get brave,
You soon won't even exist in the darkest wet cave!
Big C. Big deal
You threatened her breasts
And ravaged her lungs
And filled her precious body with poison...
...you confined her to her bed
And devastated the love of her life
But she laughed at you
All the pain through
And still she made us all laugh too...
...because she was unbeatable
In every way. And always will be...
Adored, Revered, Unforgettable,
Irreplaceable.
A horrible disease that seems to affect one and all.
We all know someone who’s succumbed to its fall,
for there are no limits to whom it may call.
To leave its patients so weary and weak,
leaving the days and nights ever so bleak,
through distant eyes we wonder, we seek.
The summer months become ever so cold,
we struggle with hope, even to hold,
never before, a disease so bold.
We watch your smile begin to fade,
reminiscing to the time of when we were made,
wondering why you, why you it did invade.
Chemo they say, to give you a chance,
I’m not so sure, you seem deeper in trance,
surely this medicine we must advance.
The time has come, that it makes clear,
my body trembles loudly, with all of this fear,
We hug one last time, you I hold so dear.
I will never forget you, of that you can be sure,
for you were so precious, loving and pure,
maybe one day I wonder, we will find a cure.
Deep down inside, you found your place.
You're buried, hard to get at, yet,
on the inside, you're making your case.
You know what you are. The Big C,
the great destroyer of men, and women,
and children. But not me.
Because you're here, let's be clear,
I'm here for the duration, and you came
without an invitation.
There's more for me out there,
I'll keep on going till you do me in,
bald or not, fat or thin.
Flood my veins and arteries, the
chemo makes me sick, sick, sick.
please, let's just get this over quick.
When cancer cells come calling options are few and far between
One can blast them with radiation which is like fighting a fire with gasoline
One can surgically remove them, hoping no stragglers are left behind
In either case the risks are many, those boogers can be hard to find
One thing’s for sure the big C is tough, it’s not an easy foe to beat
Takes lots of resolve and energy to work toward its defeat
But if your attitude is positive and you’re willing to stay the path
There's a good chance you'll come out on top and have the final laugh
Good luck to all you cancer victims and survivors out there
Dreaded words
Doctor looks tired
I cant lift my eyes
My tears are mired
How to tell a friend
What's to do....
Think ill keep it secret
For a day or two
Scans and tests
You knows best
Hospital Galore
I think what's it for...
Back to the doc
What does he say
You don't need to return
Cancers gone away....
Existing in the realm, of its own true hell
The pacing of the parasite begins to swell
It suffers in silence yet demands to be heard
It will never survive without its bevy of words
As a thief of hearts, it sought our souls
And refused to acknowledge the unspeakable tolls
It relished our pain our faults and our woes
Acted as friend yet lived as foe
Alas truth lost, but so did the beast
For a cancer did grow, and on lies it did feast
From within his throat, it locked in its feet
And his mask is now meeting a deadly defeat
