Cancer
Momma I am scared I can't take this pain no more.
I can see the angels they are knocking on my door.
My hair has fall out and my tears keep flowing.
I have no more ambition to keep on going.
People are cruel momma they keep calling me names.
Pushing and pick as I am a pawn in there game.
I quit momma I am worn out.
Let me go to sleep, i hear the angels shout.
The demons on my shoulder are dragging me down.
As people laugh at me like a clown.
But the clown is done and has gone insane.
Lay me to rest and take my pain
About this poem
Being sick and no one able to help hurts. Cancer is a sickness No one has found a cure for and I myself fight with it. Every day is a blessing/ nightmare.
