Goodbye Cancer
Thank you Cancer For the reminder Of what not to do I didn’t take care of myself And you came And keep coming back To hold me With your cells With your water For me to be held Hugged Reassured Because I felt lonely And insecure You were with me When people left me Thank you Now I'm here By my side I'm holding my hand And I love myself I know I'm able To do big things And I'm doing them So with gratitude And appreciation For your precious work I am taking back My position Of taking care of myself You have done a wonderful job You opened my eyes To where my life was heading To a cliff And then, the abyss This is the destination Of everyone Neglecting their needs I'm still learning I know what not to do But still lacking a little Know how Of being by my side Of keeping myself safe And living large And loud And real But don't worry I'm getting there So really, I got this Thank you I can take it from
