Cancer

by Christopher Wry   Aug 9, 2009


Cancer tis just a
word on paper no more no
less but for the fear
it brings, yet with the proper
eraser it too will vanish

A/N written for a friend who just found out she has it.

    This must be the word most laden with fear....I know many who have had it and I know by now that there is no logical explanation why one person dies and the other lives..I tend to think we go when our time is due and the cause is more or less random. Some live through cancer, but get killed by something else shortly after..this makes you think...

    Good poem, brave of you to tackle the subject..loved the to the point approach:)

    Take care,

    5/5 Ingrid
