Cancer:
The all time silencer
It should win a medal
For best bully of the year
No, not a kid at recess
The award goes to
Cancer

I have always been
Someone who cares more
About other people’s feelings
Rather than mine
I was growing out of this
But then
Cancer happened

It silenced me
Drove me to tears
Took away my feelings
My personality
Myself

No
Not anymore
