Me vs Cancer.
My demon within.

Cancer:- 
I just want to know why,
You think you can hide,
I’ll always be here with you,
Right by your side.
I’ll always be there,
 in the back of your mind,
so do like I do,
 and enjoy this death ride!

Me:-
Hide?
I’ll never let you win,
You’re trapped inside,
I’m the one with the will power and decisions,
I could cut my leg off,
Just to see part of you die.
Are you high?
No that’s the weed and its killing you,
And you don’t know why.
I’ve got the antidote,
So I’m controlling this situation, 
From the outside..

Cancer:-
 Erm,
Death to bevan,
I’m coming for you bitch,
And there ain’t no heaven.
Just rows of bed lined up,
For your last day alive you’ll forever be living.
Did you think I would just curl up and die?
Take flight like a bird,
And off i fly?
Don’t be absurd,
As I ain’t no bird,
Its you’re heart,
Mind and soul I want,
Completely devoured,
Deflowered,
Decomposing on the spot,
I’ll soon be turning you to ashes,
To then live in a pot.
Ha! Pot,
I’m coming for you 1st,
For how you’ve kept him alive,
Since 5 years before,
2005.

Me:- 
you think you’ve got me beaten,
That may be the case,
But at least I’m still here living n breathing.
See I’ve been a pain in your side,
As when I was given 2 to 3 weeks,
Back in 05’,
You thought I’d be an easy job for the reaper,
But little did you know,
The strength and will I have on the inside.
Not only that,
But I’ve got my joker card along for my lifetime ride,
So be aware,
I won’t go down easily,
As that just wouldn’t be fair.
I’ve enough fight in me,
Even through pain,
Grit and despair.
Just stay shackled to your chain,
at the back of my mind,
And just remember,
That cannabis and its healing powers,
Put you there.
As long as it’s in me,
You’ll be locked in your lair.

Cancer:-
Metal rusts over time,
So I’ll let that do my bidding,
For the meanwhile.
I may or may not be the cause of your fate,
But I’ve put enough twists in your life,
You’re misshapen and bent,
All thanks to me,
Ain’t my work great.
I may not be able to kill you yet.
But as long as I’m here,
You’ll always be looking over each shoulder,
Looking for any kind of fret.
You may have locked me away,
But you’ll never truly forget.
See I’m deep in your bones,
I’m there on your skin,
But best of all for me,
Is you lungs I reside in.
See I ain’t hiding,
I’m clear as day,
Nothing but that damn weed,
Keeps this cancer away.
Why are you so strong,
What in life keeps you fighting me,
I’m usually good at this,
But you’ve now lasted 20 years long!

Me:-
Dont you just love it though?
Oh yeah,
Not for you I suppose.
As I’m a damn good fighter,
Even battered and bruised,
But never broken. 
You can’t put the coins in my eyes yet,
For the death ferry laying in waiting.
I’m still here dont forget,
Can’t you just piss off,
And admit when you are defeated  and had a beating.
I’ve plenty more rounds in me.
I won’t stop,
Until it’s you I’ve defeaten.

Cancer:-
Ok ,
So you think I’m just gonna piss off and say goodbye?
That’s not how it works,
I’m here till you die. 
You’re just one stubborn son of a bitch,
Who thinks he’s some kind of immortal guy.
Well you’re not,
Toure a worthless piece of shit,
I’m taking you in hogtied! 
Not never I make them burn you with more radiation,
So I can see and feel you burn from inside!

Me:-
You sick,
Twisted nut,
What’s wrong with you,
Tearing me from my 3 boys,
Who will suffer so much.
Why are you so intent in causing hurt?
Not just to me,
But most families on earth.
 Do you really not give a toss,
Who you throw in the dirt?
How did you ever become part of this earth.
Where did you come from.
Where was your original and abysmal birth?
Or have you always been there,
Waiting to be unearthed....

Cancer:-
I’m speechless,
You’ve lost me for words,
So let’s just get this over with and throw me your life cards.
You know I’m coming for you,
So no need to run,
Just stop squirming,
And let me have,
my tortuous fun.
I want to rip you to pieces,
Kill you from the inside out,
I’m a serial killer,
And you’re by next,
I’ve no doubt...

Me:-
You’ll never take me alive

Cancer:-
I kinda hoped that,
I’m the grim reaper,
 Have you forgotten that!

Me:-
I’m not ready to go,
I’ve still so much to be done.
I’ve got to see my boys play sports professionally,
Whether it be football or rugby,
I’ll always be there,
Cheering them on.
I’m not going to let you take that from me.
 They’re my most treasured of memories. 
My pictures in my mind,
Lucky for me,
That’s one thing ,
This demon won’t find.

Cancer:-
Me?
A demon?
I’m far worse than that.
I’m cancer,
And you fool,
Are but my puppet
The Thing,
that’s meant to be making your life whole crap.
You’re nothing,
Without your ganja smoke.
So I’ll take that away,
So finally you’ll croak!

Me:-
Well bring it on bitch,
You’ll have to try harder than that,
I’ve got a prescription now,
For my magical herb,
That for 2 decades,
Has held you back!
The knife is coming,
Gonna tear a new piece of you out,
Saving my live,
Is what I’m all about.
So mark my words,
I’ll beat you back,
It’s about time I got my life back on track.!

Cancer:-
Ok,
We’ll leave it at that.
Live and be wary as I’ll be ready in waiting,
Ready to kill and attack.
All I’m looking for in you,
Is the tiniest of a crack,
To take advantage of you,
Even if it means attacking and worsening,
The pain in your back. 
You’ve lost most of your strength,
As that’s one thing from you I was able to snatch..

Me:-
Keep going with your mission,
But I’m not ready to die yet,
So you’d best go find someone else,
To be your new pet.
Come back when I'M ready,
Dont forget your hook,
I can’t  leave yet as I’ve not finished my lifes book!
