Cancer

Contributed by LauranHyde on Monday, 15th October 2012 @ 06:34:15 AM in AEST
Topic: EmotionalPoetry



The smile on his face no other can compare. Only 2 barley making it. Never walked the tumor beat him to that. He was only just 1 when the my mum was the first to notice my baby cousin, my baby cousin had cancer. The worse thing the world still cant cure. Why him?! His so young. Why do you keep taking everyone I love. His just a child, not even started his life.

Let me trade, place the tumor inside of me. The pain that leaks inside the bodies of my family. Then pain and grief, the house of a hospital his constantly there. When he grabs my hand, that smile on his face. The poor boy doesn't even know what a normal life is. To hold that precious hand in my own, I finally feel what it's like to love. Afraid of death, never been one to accept.
Last year my uncle past, yes cancer took another of my family. Another one I love.

Only months lucky if years. To be prepared I don't want to be. I don't wish to think, or wish to accept. He is to young to loose. They have already said he won't live past teens. No one know how much this pains in me. Strong for my family I hide away my tears. My uncle, my Aunty they never leave his side. Two strong people never seen so much fear.

Hey god, why do you do it? Why do you take away the good but leave all the bad. There are people who kill, people who rape. But yet you choose to take away the young. Take away the innocent souls.

What pains me most is to sit and watch, watch that adorable precious smile fade away, fade away and I can't do anything but stop and stare. Stop stare and wait. How long till his gone? How much time till he no longer be round?

I need a cure, a cure for cancer. To stop the disease I wish I could believe. Let him live, take it away. He can already never walk, hardly speak many words. Never experience what I always took for granted.

My baby boy, I love you so. Whatever happens you will always be my one and only special boy. Please don't leave you've been so strong around 2 years now so many times we nearly lost you.... Gone! Your a fighter, you gotta keep going. Keep pulling through. I got you baby boo.

So sorry to hear about your little cousin. I can't fathom what you and your family must be going through. I am 17 year childhood cancer survivor myself and I know how much pain it caused my family. Worst thing in this world is a child with cancer.

Some advice. Don't hold back the tears. Cry it out. Cry for your little cousin. The reason we cry for the ones we loose is because we love them. So continue to love your cousin and cry for him. Holding in the emotions only wrecks you more. Ride out the emotional sets.

Keep writing!
