It may physically destroy your body
But it can’t slay your spirit
It can emotionally obliterate your mind
But it won’t affect your soul
It can worry your loved ones
But it won’t **** friendships
It could weaken your abilities
But it will not suppress your memories
It might lessen your bravery
But it shouldn’t silence your courage
It may **** your cells
But it can’t invade your soul
It will frighten your family and friends
But it will not take away their love
It can subside your faith
But it will only make you further appreciate life
It will make you stop focusing on the negatives
And start bringing the positives to your attention
You will overcome temporary setbacks
And become a stronger person
You will look forward to each new day
And stop worrying about the bad ones
You won’t over look natures beauty
And you will appreciate sunrises, sunsets and thunderstorms
You’ll step off of the shore line and into the ocean
And feel exhilarated, like that’s the only feeling you want to feel
Cancer might lessen your bravery
But you can’t let it silence your courage
