Cancer sucks

Doctor walked in face like stone

Words hit hard cut straight 2 the bone

Stage 2 maybe 3 its in ur chest

Heartbeat stopped man I failed the test

Yesterday I was living just fine just me

Today I'm a patient with a new enemy

My mama cried quiet tears soaked the floor

My dad punched the wall screaming no more

My friends they don't know what to say or do

Some vanish like shadows some stick like glue

I feel weak but I fake being strong

Staring at the mirror like what went wrong

Chemo drips poison but it's life I'm sipping

Some days I'm drowning some days I'm gripping

Lost my hair but not my will

Every pills a hill but I climb still

I'm angry I'm sad I'm hopeful I'm mad

Life's a cruel joke but I'm in the last laugh

To my family I see your pain

You carry my storm you feel my rain

But don't give up no don't lose sight

I'm more than this war I'm still your light

To the fighters out there who battle the same

You're not just a patient you're a name you're a flame

Cancer sucks yeah it takes and it steals

Rips apart dreams leaves scars that don't heal

But I'm here still standing won't let it define

This fight’s not just theirs this fight's also mine

Doctor said the word it hit like a train

No warning no signal just a flood of pain

Life flipped in a second thought I had time

But the clock's ticking now and the hill’s a climb

Tears on the floor can't breathe through the weight

Tried to call someone but words came late

Mirror shows a face that don't feel like mine

How do you fight when the war’s inside

Mom's in the corner praying for grace

Dad's trying hard but I see his face

Sister's cracking jokes but her laugh is thin

We're all in the ring but it's me that's pinned

Needles and pills the routine sets in

Days feel heavy like they'll never begin

Hope’s a shadow but it's still in the room

Fighting for light when the world feels gloom

Some days I scream some days I pray

Some days I laugh just to push it away

But every moment I'm here I'll stay

This battle’s mine I won't let it stray

Cancer sucks yeah it tears you apart

Breaks your body but it can't touch your heart

Through the anger through the tears we rise

Resilience grows where the pain collides

Needles in my veins drip drop the meds

Head shaved clean but I still hold my head

Doctors speak in riddles charts in their hands

I'm here on this table making a stand

Every pill a mountain every hour a climb

But this hart beats steady 1 day at a time

Chemos a thief it steals my taste

Food like cardboard no time to waste

Skin pale as moonlight nights feeling long

But I hum a little tune keep my soul strong

Radiation burns scars on the skin

But deep in my chest the fire won't dim

Family in the waiting room love in their eyes

They keep me breathing my sunrise

Every side effect every fite i face

I find a piece of me in every space

Cancer sucks but I'm still here

Thru the pain thru the fear

Hold my hand wipe the tears

Were stronger than this louder than fear

Cancer sucks

Dedicated to everyone
