Cancer


I hate cancer

My mom throwing up everywhere, everynight

Two years of this and still I'm tight

Feeling of sadness 

Thinking is she going to make it through the night.

Cancer is the devil preying on precious life

Tell me why I should not give up 

Tell me why cancer is not dead

I see no progress in this 

No hope

Man, I hate cancer
