Many days passed in despair,
complaining, crying & saying it's not fair.
Life swayed as the truth hit,
but mind wasn't ready to accept it.
Glued to the bed & jealous of the sound,
of the children shouting & playing in the ground.
Hands were numb so the tears it couldn't wipe,
whole body was attached & surrounded by tubes & pipe.
Eyes couldn't see, they were half closed,
stop being hopeful, the mind forced.
Rants from within could be heard,
asking for life & to fly again like a bird.
To get up, move around, walk & run,
to again live freely & have fun.
To sit & think surrounded by trees,
to breathe & live happily at peace.
To fulfill all these wishes, every bit of it,
her heart appealed to cancer with it's last beat.
