Cancer Poem by Alexander Foald

Cancer



Such a bright day today is
I can feel the warm sun and whistling breeze
I can see the grass dance under the caressing trees
While the birds sing to all the wonderful bliss

Looking out over the window frame
Watching as the sky turns blue and the clouds moving along
Feels like time is leisurely taking its step to spin around
Before the day could end and falling down

Meanwhile, here I am sat on my bed
Coated with white blankets and infused blood on my left
Wondering what it feels like to live another day after tomorrow
And the next day, and the next day, just living without sorrow

….time sure flies slow.

The sun keeps moving away from my sight
But I still can feel its warmth in my heart
This heart of mine which is made of glass
Beating slowly before burns into ashes

Tragic, overwhelming, and forceful. It is well-written and the theme excellently expressed.10+++++
