The Cancer is eating me away

by The Poet Behind The Poems   Jul 10, 2011


I got told I could have cancer at my sisters wedding
I went to the doctors, they said it was spreading
I went to get a scan they told me its treatable with pills
They said I was really lucky because this sort of cancer kills.

Months started to passed, I started feeling ill
I went back to the doctors they said its eating you still
I got told " its the pills your body has started rejecting"
But what they told me next, my mind was not expecting.

They told my parents theres nothing they can do
I wish this was fiction but believe me "it is true"
I was stuck in bed i couldn't move ,hear or think
It was getting worst I couldnt smile I cant even blink

It's starting to go dark im starting to go cold
The only thing I've got is the quilt to have and to hold
I cant bare this pain I dont want this feeling to stay
"I dont have long , inside the cancer eating me away"

"Dont feel bad about me please dont cry
I'll love you all forever I can finally say
Goodbyeeeeeeeeeeeee".....

    Hey again! :)

    I loved your poem but wait, do you really have cancer? :| I'm sad to hear this if yes, and hope you never have it if no :) the emotions were so heartfelt and you portrayed such sad verses!

    I have some suggestions though :)

    I got told I could have cancer at my sisters wedding
    I went to the doctors, they said it was spreading
    I went to get a scan they told me its treatable with pills
    They said I was really lucky coz this sort of cancer kills.
    ^^^

    "coz" should be "because" :)

    Months started to passed, I started feeling ill
    I went back to the doctors they said its eating you still
    I got told " its the pills your body has started rejecting"
    But what they told me next, my mind was not expecting.

    "months started to pass" :) not "passED"
    "its" should be "it's"
    I loved the last two lines...they were so sad :)

    They told my parents theres nothing they can do
    I wish this was fiction but believe me "it is true"
    I was stuck in bed i couldn't move ,hear or think
    It was getting worst I couldnt smile I cant even blink
    ^^
    I would write this "i couldn't move ,hear" like this:

    "I couldn't move[,] hear"
    way so better!

    It's starting to go dark im starting to go cold
    The only thing I've got is the quilt to have and to hold
    I cant bare this pain I dont want this feeling to stay
    "I dont have long , inside the cancer eating me away"
    ^^
    "cant" should be "can't"
    "im" should be "I'm"
    "dont" should be "don't"

    PS. why don't you put apostrophes?

    "Dont feel bad about me please dont cry
    I'll love you all forever I can finally say
    Goodbyeeeeeeeeeeeee".....
    ^^

    the ending was so heartbreaking...

    good piece but you should pay some attention to punctuaion :)
    keep writing!
