Com-passion
A cancer patient,
An illegal student.
They both have in common
As much as they differ.
Striving for a chance
To continue the journey,
A fight to advance
Ahead in this life.
They both have a drive,
They both have a passion
To do what it takes
To follow their vision
And far from compassion
They inspire ardor,
The immigrant student
Is the cancer survivor.
