As I await.

The mind rushes

To analyze

What future looms

I bide my time.

As I await.

The body tremors

Inside and out

Fatigued, it yells

The pain, it shouts.

As I await.

The eye stabs

Vision blurry

Migraines laugh

To watch me worry.

As I await.

The muscles dance

To tunes unknown

Lightning strikes

The weary bone.

As I await.

Memory fails

Words escape

The mind still fights

As I await.

As I await.

Heart palpitates

Stress enhances

Emotions calm

To steer advances.

As I await.

It fights to win

But all in vain

Corrupt the body

My soul remains.

As I await.

Love still lingers

Intentions pure

No anger lives

No pity here.

As I await.

Disease roars strong

Yet, I prevail

Love supersedes

This crumbling shell.

As I await.

Symptoms linger

Rise and fall

No sense to madness

Inside this wall.

As I await.

Stare in question

Distance fear

This child of God

Protected here.

As I await.

My blessings soar

Above the trial

Diagnosis looms

But still I smile.

As I await.
