My Life

I have known for sometime that my time was near,

I try to go on with my life forgetting the fear,

Many doctors I have seen,

They tell me no cure is foreseen,



How can I go on living this way?

Knowing I can die any day,

I try to be as strong as I can,

Always looking for a helping hand,



A new doctor is found giving me new hope,

When he tells me he can't help me, how can I cope,

To get my hopes up only to be crushed once more,

They can't wait to remind me, there is no cure,



My attacks grow stronger everyday,

Each one taking my breath away,

So I live each day as it is my last,

Soon all my pain and hardships will be in the past,



Born with a rare heart condition,

That has put my life in this position,

My life has been threatened,

I am so very frightened,



I pray each day to go on living,

Dealing with this is so very draining,

I want to see my children all grown,

I know I'll only see them from my tombstone,



Dying from this is my fate,

I only hope a cure is found before it's too late
