Cancer, We All Know Someone


You think you're so popular
cause everyone knows who you are.
Just cause they know you,
doesn't mean they like you, by far.

You make everyone sick,
you make everyone cry,
you despicable beast -
you're the one who should die.

Those who survive what you try to take
can laugh in your face.
Those who perish,
we are left to walk through your somber wake.

I cannot command you,
despite the anger that dwells inside,
to set our blood, organs and bones free,
for your disease has more power than I.

Exasperated, I kneel
on bended knee.
I beg of you please,
move along - leave us be.
