did those chemicals burn
as they pumped through your veins?
facade of bravery
as the hope of remission wanes
did you put on a strong face
so the rest of us could sleep?
did you cry quietly,
did you secretly weep?
when one must, one can
was your motto for facing it all
was this your true grit,
what do you recall?
fluid slowly fills your lungs
snuffing out your angelic voice
the cells, they're multiplying too quickly
you're left without a choice

A shocking revelatory letter is presented
The tone goes from thanks to regret
while the hurricane spins in her head
The pharmacology reconnected synapses,
morphing her soul, keeping her in bed
He realizes she’s letting go for him,
she’s done this before
She can’t figure out how to love him any more
Months later he realized the person
he thought he loved was just a mirror
She never knew her true self
Maybe she never will
