Oh cancer how I hate you
Oh cancer how I hate you,let me count the ways.I hate you for causing sleepless nights and very stressful days, I hate you for your choice of whom you'll belong to,why don't you leave good people alone? Tackle me! I'm more worthy of you.I hate you for your promises of surgery and sick days to come, why don't you go back to hell? I'm sure that's where you're from.I hate you for sneaking up on Louise whom I truly love,but we will win this fight with you with help from God above, I hate you for the lives you touch of people who've done no wrong & I hate how you never leave quickly and for always staying too long.I hate you for all the things you steal making it hard for people to cope,but I love the fact that with God above you will never take our hope, we shall defeat you one day there will be a cure, oh cancer how I hate you but this fight we'll win for sure.
