Because of Cancer


 
 
A disease where abnormal cells divide uncontrollably,
Every part of your body can be effected,
As it spreads throughout the body,
Destroying body tissue.
 
 
One treatment can cause you to get it again,
Hoping for the best,
Fearing the worst,
But it is a risk people are willing to take,
So they will not have to say goodbye to their loved ones.
 
Families support them,
Hoping things will someday get better,
And that the cancer will not gain control,
That they will win the battle,
And will become strong once again,
Fearing that they will have to say their last goodbye,
Because of it,
Because of cancer
