    Poem Commentary

    this poem comes on the heels of my recent cancer diagnosis, to all those out there who share in my plight pray for me please!

    The Cancer Stick

    My God has answered my prayers
    and given me my hearts' desire
    He's kicked my ass from the pan
    right straight into the fire

    I am now in for the fight of my life
    the battle will be hard and long
    but I can not give up hope just yet
    I must keep positive and be strong

    I must go and leave my love behind
    this decision weighs heavy on my mind
    in the past I have hurt so many people
    now I must beg forgiveness in kind

    To you my love I pray for your understanding
    and I hope our love will be neverending
    I wish there was a way to work things out
    so that there will be no more doubt

    I am in so much pain both body and soul
    and it is so hard for me to maintain control
    the love of my life is in an emotional hell
    and there is little I can do to make things well

    All I can do is continue to fight
    to just keep on trying to make things right
    and hope someday it will work out fine
    so that one day we can share peace of mind
