Cancers' story

Life like cancer

Cancer's story

in the land of Mortalia,
where shadows creep,
A devilish beast named Cancer waits,
no sleep.
Strikes cruel and hard,
sometimes slow, sometimes fast,
Day or night,
its torment lasts.

Radiation,
that double-edged sword we wield,
Chemotherapy,
both friend and foe in the field.
Hastens its grip or halts the beast's rise,
In my case,
I'm spared,
still alive.

Battles relentless,
every day a fight,
Each moment a victory,
against the night.
The body's fortress breached,
cells turn traitor,
Chaos reigns,
peace no longer a factor.

Ancient cities,
organs crumble under assault,
Lungs gasp for air,
liver's work comes to a halt.
Bones weaken,
fracture in the onslaught,
Pain haunts every moment,
consciousness caught.

The mind,
a maze of fear,
turns bring new horrors,
Hope flickers,
future clouded with sorrows.
Chemotherapy's poison flows,
war in the veins,
Leaves the body weak,
autumn hair remains.

Radiation's fire targets the foe,
Burns away invader,
scars show.
Skin becomes a battlefield,
wounds remind,
Yet amidst darkness,
love's light we find.

Family,
friends,
soldiers on front lines,
Offering strength,
comfort,
deflecting Cancer's signs.
Survivors rise,
bodies scarred but strong,
Souls tested,
shine brighter,
life's song.

Cancer,
malevolent demon,
more terrifying than the dead,
Drains life insidiously,
fear it spreads.
Plague worse than curses,
scythe ever-present,
Grim Reaper pales,
Cancer's grip incessant.

Sinister hex,
shadow over life it casts,
Haunting specter,
mortality's grasp.
Zombie apocalypse less terrifying,
calculated destruction,
Dragon's breath scorching life,
invasive cells' eruption.

Cunning trickster god,
deceives,
eludes,
Hydra's heads child's play,
Cancer's strength renewed.
Curse more damning,
cycle of suffering binds,
Hurricane's destruction,
Cancer's darkness blinds.

Black hole consumes hope,
Cancer feeds,
Insidious parasite,
life force it bleeds.
Human spirit rises,
determined,
strong,
With courage,
loved ones,
victories belong.

Numerous types roam the land,
each a unique fight,
Breast,
lung,
prostate,
colorectal,
spreading fright.
Aggressive,
silent progression,
early detection key,
Significant cause,
cancer's death spree.

Dangerous forms,
pancreatic,
liver,
ovarian in the mix,
Low survival rates,
late detection tricks.
Cancer's malevolence,
surpasses demons, fearsome lore,
Terrifying than risen dead,
insidious to the core.

Plague of curses,
Grim Reaper's pale shadow,
Haunting specter,
ghost's sorrow.
Fearsome dragon,
Kraken's less threat,
Invasive cells' spread,
life's essence they get.

Trickster god's deceit,
Cancer eludes,
Hydra's heads return,
strength imbued.
Curse of artifact,
cycle of despair,
Hurricane's path,
Cancer's darkness there.

In the darkness,
hope flickers faint,
Warriors rise,
in the battle they paint.
Strength and courage,
love's embrace,
Together they fight,
Cancer's disgrace.

In this,
My tale,
human spirit fights back,
Courage,
resilience,
loved ones on track.
Cancer a formidable foe,
but not invincible,
With strength and support,
victories,
achievable.
