Mark Cooley Poem
THE UNFORTUNATE ARRIVAL
"Dedicated to VICKIE MACKEY a true warrior on the battlefield for this fight against cancer " It arrives at your front door,uninvited too rude,too fast,too Detrimental
Too Determined to knock.Spreading as Wildfire moving Fast and furious It
Does not Wait for No one,no need to look at the Clock.Leaving hearts
Broken everyone In Shock.Teardrops replace The Words that cant be
Spoken.Faces displayed With anger,denial, Frustration,Procrastination
Haunted some of the curious Leaving them with no education,no interest
Another home.Another family Another tragedy,another heartache
"CANCER HAS ARRIVED" Without An invitation So Blind as It sees no
Race,creed or color Too Deaf as it Refuses to hear Any Cries for help or
Dispair' Sadly Heartless ,as it feels no Compassion When Striking the
Young or old leaving a death like Stillness In the Air.as we scratch Our
Heads Badly in Disbelief realizing that often Life Isnt Fair
"CANCER HAS ARRIVED for anyone,everyone all across the nation what
An ugly situation Are we ever prepared for such a Deadly Invasion ?
Tearing life as we Know it apart, knocking Down the innocent
Some never Having a chance to start.Is there even a hint of a Positive
Equation? leaving all of us Holding question marks Needing Answers to
Explain Why. Will we ever feel complete Looking for the truth Needing
Hope while losing faith on years and Years of research ,countless
Dollars spent efforts to remain Grounded yet lives Still lost cures
Remain Unfounded,Questions Only GOD can Answer CANCER HAS
ARRIVED. Dear GOD will we ever Find Salvation ?
"May all who have lost their battle with cancer forever rest in peace " m.cooley 4/22/18
