Why Me?

I remember the words he said to me, It seems like yesterday, And as he looked into my eyes, The room began to sway. I felt my whole world crumble, When he spoke the dreaded word, I'm sorry, but you have cancer, My fears were now confirmed. Once the storm subsided, I felt so strong inside, I'll fight you to the very end! You'll have no easy ride! The treatment made me poorly, At times I felt so low, I faced the Devil inside me, And vowed I'd never let go. Many years have gone, My life moves on, I cherish each precious day, Now thankful for the little things, Life gives, in every way. Jayne Louise Davies
