Lost and found

Round by round

14/09/2020
Lost and found...

Am I coming or going,
I can barely decide,
No matter how much is thrown at me,
Is it the beginning or ending,
Ā of my life timeline?
Even My body,
Heart and mind,
Let alone my soul,
Canā€™t come together,
And in strength bind,
As my eventual fate,
Ā is out of,
Even their control.

I was once lost,
But now Iā€™ve been found,
Not by anyone else,
But me,
with my feet firmly on the ground.
Realising that Iā€™ve served my purpose,
Just by letting my message,
Being spread around.
I know I wonā€™t be here forever,
But iā€™ll stay for maybe 10,
But hopefully not,
Just 1 more round.
Although for my kids,
Family and friends,
I wish i was forever and eternally earth bound!Ā 

Taking each day as it comes,Ā 
Riding each wave,
That my vessel succumbs.
Changing the rudder slightly,
To make sure I stay on fates right path,
As donā€™t want to be pushed away,
To be lead down one,
Ā with no smiles,
Not even a single laugh.
I want to be lead down the one,
Thatā€™s right for this vessel,
Thatā€™s right for this raft.
Iā€™m just about keeping afloat,
As was sinking slow,
But now the flow is too fast,
As Iā€™m taking on so much water,
I donā€™t know how long I can keep up,
How much longer will my vessel last?

Iā€™ve people all around me,
Thinking Iā€™ve given up,
Will power and all.
Lucky Iā€™m the type of guy,
That sees a glass not half empty,
But half full.
Iā€™m doing as Iā€™ve always done,
And attacking my cancer,
Ā Like That,
Of a raging bull!
So Iā€™m not being pessimistic,
Just thinking realistically is all.
Realistically realising,
That Iā€™ve possibly not got long left,
But will fight it with optimism,
Like I always have done,
Ā and always will.
Fate likes throwing me a curve ball,
But it will have to try harder,
To make me,
From Grace,
Fall.
As Iā€™ve got more fight in me,
Iā€™m ready for the next brawl.
All takes the winner,
Where as the loser will be floored,
I plan to see another day,
No more cancer anymore.Ā 
So Iā€™ll come out fighting,
Using all my strength,
That for the past 20 years Iā€™ve stored
And Iā€™ll forever continue,
Till my cancer's in my body no more!
