Book excerpt

CANCER

Like a thief in the night
You came into our lives
One minute we are able
The next we are condemned
Your methods are not restricted
Your victims are not selective
You are merciless and forbidding
Callous and bold
You take no prisoners
Yet you leave us imprisoned
You attack with no sympathy
You leave lives in shambles
Hearts forever shattered
Words never articulated
Families forever broken
You are our adversary
Yet never motivated
You left us speechless
But screaming till the end
Screams of why
Screams of help
But out voices are just memories
Left behind
Those that have met you
Will live to remember you
Your name is unspoken
But whispered in the lives
You have claimed
Cancer
