Cancer

Where have I failed.

Where did I go wrong

How did it happened

It seems like a dream.

 

Oh cancer, The killer of soul.

The remover of smiles

The sudden shock of life.

 

How many chemo before failing,

For the pain is much

Lo! I cannot bear.

Where have I failed?

 

I beseech you Lord to take my soul

When you are pleased with me

For the pain is much

Lo! I cannot bear.

 

Take a look at the mirror

To see a smile

But the picture of yourself

Lo, and behold a sad being.

 

I beseech you Lord to take my soul

When you are pleased with me

For the pain is much

Lo! I cannot bear.

 

Oh cancer!

Where did I go wrong

To receive a dead statement

While still not dead

 

All the smiles,

Replaced with cloud of tears

How many chemo before failing?

For the pain is much.
