Cancer

The window in my room, seems ever so small,

Coz I cannot see, beyond the tree so tall.

The people around me, seem so very noisy,

Coz I can’t hear, the sparrow, so chirpy.

I wish I could join, the other kids outside.

If only my mom goes, away from my bedside.

I never really, seem to have understood,

The need to lie, forever on my bed.

My legs are craving, to run and have a fall

My eyes are longing, to see beyond the blank wall

Why did it have to be me, what did I do wrong..

I don’t think I have been here, for far too long 

This is not who I am, surely not me

Locked in a tiny room, having no key.

Mom says, I’ll be going to heaven,

Where I will forget all this pain.

But it is still early for me, to leave this world,

And this is exactly, where I want to grow old.

But maybe I am, part of God’s bigger plan

And am happy to help, as best as I can.

But whatever time, that I have now left,

I want to do stuff, that I love the best.

If there was something, I could wish for,

I just have a little prayer,

That no child , should suffer this pain,

That has become my bane.

Of so many great things, man may be the master,

But sadly for me, we got defeated, by dreaded Cancer.
