The light

The light

Waking up early
i ponder the light
Why does it shine
Why is it so bright

Waking up early
Confused out of my mind
I start gaining a headache
And All i can do is sigh

Waking up early
Yet still with no answers
I go on my way
Still fighting off this cancer

But im still waking up early
With a heavy dark heart
Wondering why
the light will never part

Soon i started waking up late
With no hair
no smile
Just a blank face

One day i realized
You need the light
Because in the darkest of times
Who else will fight

I again started waking up early
Now Greeting the sun
As without him
My last moments wouldn't have been any fun

So thank you my friend
For all of your encouragement
For fighting off death
Just to give me another breathe

With cancer also running in my family I understand this plight. I really enjoyed the tie back at the end of this poem. Keep writing!
