Cancer Sucks!

Don’t feel
Like you have to apologize
When you need to talk
About the scary turn
Life has taken

Don’t feel
Like you shouldn’t bring it up
Because it’ll drag things down
And you don’t think
I should have to hear about it

Don’t feel
Like you have to face it alone
That no one understands
Or wants to be there
When you are scared and overwhelmed

Feel free
To come to me
To vent
To cry
To rage
To question
To hope
To fear
To spout off
Whatever comes
Into your mind and heart

I care
I love you
I want to know
Your hopes and fears
And how you are doing
And what’s going on
And what the doctors say
And how you feel each day

If you want to hide
Or play
Or cry
Or laugh and be silly
To forget for a while
Come to me
I’m your friend
I love you
I’m here
In the darkness
And the light
