The future the past

This is the story I nearly left last 
Hard to be honest, the future the past 
Caught up in confusion with no where to run 
Still everyone thinks I’m the positive one 
I thought I was crazy, could not work it out 
In all of my madness, my family were in doubt 
Cos strength and hard work was all that they see 
Til cancer took over it was strangling me 
A mind that’s erupting all over the place 
So frightened of living life’s natural ways 
I took out my pen and turned to my pad 
Release from myself life wasn’t so bad 
Found strength in my strength 
and life in my life 
From a child to a woman a mother and wife 
I am my own strength I am my own life 
For the first time in forever 
Living with cancer has changed my whole mind
I don’t want to be strong, I don’t want to fight 
I just want to go back to living my normal best life 
So take time and remember to check yourself. out 
Or it might be your story I’m writing about

  • It's great that you can get some release by writing. I too vent on paper! A poignant message. Stay strong. It's hard to have a new "normal " forced upon you. I hope you continue to find a peaceful pathway forwards.
