You're dying...

by werty   Jan 12, 2012


Seeing him hurt,

Hurts me badly in return,

The thought of losing him,

Is the worst thing i ever imagined.

Why you?

Can someone tell me?

You have a family,

You have a job, a wife,

You have a life.

But somehow this thing,

Seems to want to come back,

To haunt you and destroy you,

From the inside out.

You say it's gonna be fine,

You don't care what it does to you,

All you want is to protect your family,

But why you?

Is it to punish me?

I know I make mistakes,

But is it really necessary?

This thing is going too far.

It ruins your body,

It wants you to die,

All you can do,

Is hope to survive.

And during that time,

you try to comfort your crying wife,

the disease eating you physically,

destroys her mentally.

It also destroys me,

But I can't show you,

Neither can I show your wife,

I have to be the strong one,

And help her through it.

More and more cells are destroyed,

This mass in your brain,

Is it going to go away one day?

Please I hope so,

I can't lose you.

Brain tumor,

That's what they call it,

It keeps coming back,

Even though your only 30.

Can you answer me please,

I know you don't know the answer,

But please, tell me the truth daddy,

Are you gonna survive?

    Such a remorseful poem. so sad. the emotions in it where true and heartfelt. i can only suggest or tell you that when you put a comma, the word that comes next doesnt have to start with a capital letter. He will be fine, just have the faith in God and believe.
