Cancer
Breast Cancer is so limited, Breast Cancer cannot love someone, Breast Cancer cannot be happy, Breast cancer cannot be kind, Breast cancer cannot shatter fate. None of this can happen unless you let it.
Leukemia cannot run your life, Leukemia cannot change you, Leukemia cannot make you weak, Leukemia cannot ruin your life, Leukemia cannot go down without a fight.
None of this can happen unless you let it.
Brain cancer cannot shatter hope, Brain cancer cannot cripple hope, Brain cancer cannot destroy peace, Brain cancer cannot kill friendships, Brain cancer cannot silence courage. None of this can happen unless you let it.
Spinal cancer cannot invade the soul, Spinal cancer cannot steal eternal life, Spinal cancer cannot conquer the spirit, Spinal cancer cannot suppress memories.
None of this can happen unless you let it.
But cancer can make you stronger. This poem is about all the people I have met and people I wish I had the pleasure to meet, cancer is a dangerous thing to have you don't know what it really does to you unless you have it, each stanza is about one person who I know or wish to know that had each of this type of cancer
