An Unfortunate Arrival

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
