I remember the words he said to me, <br />It seems like yesterday, <br />And as he looked into my eyes, <br />The room began to sway. <br /> <br />I felt my whole world crumble, <br />When he spoke the dreaded word, <br />I'm sorry, but you have cancer, <br />My fears were now confirmed. <br /> <br />Once the storm subsided, <br />I felt so strong inside, <br />I'll fight you to the very end! <br />You'll have no easy ride! <br /> <br />The treatment made me poorly, <br />At times I felt so low, <br />I faced the Devil inside me, <br />And vowed I'd never let go. <br /> <br />Ten years have gone, <br />My life moves on, <br />I cherish each precious day, <br />Now thankful for the little things, <br />Life gives, in every way.<br /><br />Jayne Davies<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/why-me-126/
