Life always gives reasons to live
People always find the motive to
But I am going through chemo
I am counting down my days to go!
At first it made me hate it
‘Cause I knew my lungs would give out.
It took away whatever it had to take
However taught me to live with no regret!
Know that I will never marry
Oh I am sick of this chemo
And I am counting down my days to go
But this taught me to accept the truth
And move forward in life!
OFF THE BLOCKS
People and feelings change like seasons and climate.
Just to see what I have seen
Through this journey I’ve memories to cherish
‘Cause it showed me what time friendship looks like….
Now I am awful just to see
All my hairs are falling apart
All my strength and agony
Know that I am learning soon
With the lesson to open myself to kindness
If I say goodbye today
Remember I’d always been true
People hate this to bits
But it taught me to have a positive view
On life and fit!
I learned to have faith
I learnt not to take things for granted.
I saw people change their colors
Yet I learned to be courageous
Keeping all this in mind I want you to know
That I am counting down my days to go.
