Death attacks you inside and out
you learn to know what Slow suffering is about
surgeon open their shells
to repair their broken cells
give them more chance to live well
early detection is like a golden coin
shining at the bottom of the well
earning the patient more level points
You start to change inside and out
during chemo hair will fall out
The Symbol of vitality
the sign of beauty and strength in your mortality
People are so disillusioned by physicality
you become weary by decreased immunity
Level of your consciousness needs attention of an alert community
You mistaken the disease for flu due to prolonged cough
Due to its crafty nature
it might proceed to a state mature
and it won't be detected fast enough
Search through your body for lumps
to prevent your dear life from getting dumped
Abnormal bleeding
to slow and untimely death might be leading
You eat but never get content
for pleasure and well-being you get no consent
Rather than gaining weight
you become pale and light
unexplained is the weight loss
your condition becomes your boss
Future dreams and plans away you toss
You start living in the moment
the remaining days become your lament
You suffer from disturbing failures in metabolism
your daily life gets crazy and abstract like cubism
Early signs have been shown in my aunt
Only devastating results are there to flaunt
Patients and family are in pain
Love and care might sustain
The older you get the bigger the risk
It might be reasonable to go through a frisk
to avoid the symptoms misc
and save the picture of your cells on a disc
The incurable end up in end-of-life care
I said good-bye to my grandmother in there
She had physical and mental relief
peace and consolation in her belief
