Goodnight, friend
Be brave even if
you have to cry
When there is no hope in sight to fight
fight on,and that's what you did,
You are A hero, a mom, wife and a friend.
The battle was really hard.
No one should have to fight this battle
The way you did
We really thought you had won,
But still you fought on
With everything you had and then some
The happiness and love you brought
To all the lives you have touched
you are loved so much.
Will live on forever.
With each and every one of us
When we close our...
you have to cry
When there is no hope in sight to fight
fight on,and that's what you did,
You are A hero, a mom, wife and a friend.
The battle was really hard.
No one should have to fight this battle
The way you did
We really thought you had won,
But still you fought on
With everything you had and then some
The happiness and love you brought
To all the lives you have touched
you are loved so much.
Will live on forever.

The Double Image (Portraits)
I made you to find me'
'It doesn't matter if there are wars,
the business of life continues
unless you're the one that gets it'
-Anne Sexton
I went around in circles writing the empty vernacular,
writing it out in reams until it stood for something.
The dead heart followed along, musing me.
Why are the words so empty?
They echo, those words, rat-tat-tat and ka-ching
as the hills of my mother's bounty became flattened.
Each faint pulse of her heart, a wind of the ribbon ink,
and sentences...

Pretty Women are Smiling at Me
I don't know what it is
Possibly my new skin cancer scar
Is that possible ?
It's healing nicely
Looks like the remnants of a bar fight
Not the action I usually go for
Poet's are lovers and thinkers
I'll take those smiles though
Fucking cancer has to be good for something
Possibly my new skin cancer scar
Is that possible ?
It's healing nicely
Looks like the remnants of a bar fight
Not the action I usually go for
Poet's are lovers and thinkers
I'll take those smiles though

Uncle Mort
Ten years ago my family lost someone near and dear to our heart
Mort was a very strong and healthy man and was always busy doing things
He loved his family and friends and was always there when he needed them
He was always humble and kind no matter the circumstance
In 2009 his cancer got worse and worse and he started getting weaker
It was hard on the whole family seeing you that way
Though he always kept a smile on his face and never showed any fear
On the night before he died I had prayed that God would heal him
Sadly the next morning my mom told me...

Chemical State of Mind
I don’t work, I don’t fuck only eat and rarely shit
That’s why this year I’m on my third selfish-ass bitch,
“The life I live they truly hate it
Now grandma’s giving me an enema, because I’m constipated,
“The chemo for the cancer is eating me alive
Couldn’t make it to the bathroom now shit is running down my thighs,
“Embarrassed and words of comfort-I don’t want to hear it
Because my soul is hurt, sprinkled with a shattered spirit,
“Soiled clothes on the floor, shitty rag in the sink
Asshole naked on the toilet as I start to think, ...

Cancer Tribulations
In this day In age
Cancer is on the rise
And they say we know
More about than ever before
Saying they are getting
The best treatment out there
But there are still people
Dying from it everyday
Not just from the original diagnosis
But from the treatment
That causes a secondary
These people have been through
So much already
Their own body's attacking them
As well as the treatment
Killing cells
Making them weak
Wishing it was just over already
Some refusing treatment
Because of its effects
I...

watchful eyes
Tireder and tireder
He grows
He tries not to let
it show
It causes me to worry
That, he already knows
Its time to rest my love
I'll be here in the shadows
Watching over you
Hoping you'll be better soon
He grows
He tries not to let
it show
It causes me to worry
That, he already knows
Its time to rest my love
I'll be here in the shadows
Watching over you
Hoping you'll be better soon

Your Rock
Its so heart wretching
To see you
Battling for your life
Its all i can do
To just
Keep myself
From breaking
I have to keep
Reminding myself
This isnt about me
So i try to
Harden my emotions
To become
The rock
You need me to be
To see you
Battling for your life
Its all i can do
To just
Keep myself
From breaking
I have to keep
Reminding myself
This isnt about me
So i try to
Harden my emotions
To become
The rock
You need me to be

trials of cancer
Im tired
Drained
Then theres you
So very exhausted
And depleted
If I could only give you
Half of what I have
To make you feel
Normal again
I would do it over
A million times
Drained
Then theres you
So very exhausted
And depleted
If I could only give you
Half of what I have
To make you feel
Normal again
I would do it over
A million times

No Time Left
I’d sit and read your letters
I’d cry again
I burned them long ago
Was only way to hold you then
Through paper
I burned them page by page
The plans we made
Another chance to spend together
what life would grant us
Time has ran out
Emperor of maladies
Has taken you from all who love you
Now only delusions
Of what could of been for us
Burning in my mind
I’d cry again
I burned them long ago
Was only way to hold you then
Through paper
I burned them page by page
The plans we made
Another chance to spend together
what life would grant us
Time has ran out
Emperor of maladies
Has taken you from all who love you
Now only delusions
Of what could of been for us
Burning in my mind

Conscious in Limbo
The days are
Dwindling down
To when
My love
Will no longer
Feel like himself
So I'm reminiscing
Of the past
That has yet to pass
And a future
That hasn't come
So this moment
Is where
I'll keep you
In my mind
Dwindling down
To when
My love
Will no longer
Feel like himself
So I'm reminiscing
Of the past
That has yet to pass
And a future
That hasn't come
So this moment
Is where
I'll keep you
In my mind

She may wear lavender, but he is mine!
My husband is still
Flirting with death
And I loathe it
Like I told you
Once before
Bitch
Keep your distance
Our love is strong
And You can't have him
He is mine
And I will
fight you
Every step of the way!
Flirting with death
And I loathe it
Like I told you

Bitch
Keep your distance
Our love is strong
And You can't have him
He is mine
And I will
