Hummingbirds are Dancing in My Stomach.

It's cancer. The beloved serum that erodes each artery
Decorates the capillaries with sparkles
When the feeling is like hummingbirds dancing in my stomach
They may be bullets but
They do elate.
And so the rational part of me screams
'somebody do something!!'
but the other side; it's out of it's mind.
Who would have believed a needle with some crystals
Could fill each fibre of me with warmth
Wrap a set of soft hands around my heart
Catch me when I fall..
....but by first morning
my soul was gone.

powerful from first line to concluding declaration, with a terrific capture of the physical experience in the face of warning bells.
well done,

I though this poem was great and I really enjoy poetry that makes you feel like you are there feeling what the poet is feeling. This line really stood out for me.
