A heart so absolute
In a world of cancer
Was it just comedy
This dark digression
You were not weak
More vulnerable, perhaps
That it hurt you more
Than any could comprehend
The affliction never shows
But the retort, transparent
But dark did avail
Your fragile heart

You do not feel torment
When you are ethereal
One with the world
But not with existence
Yet I'm in despair
I feel it too
No joy for you
Because without you I'm here
Trapped in this cancer
Perhaps more deserving
For my heart is adverse
And yours, absolute
