Love Verses Sickness
You held me through the difficult nightsI never thought I would be able to sleep, eat, or think,
ever again after losing the greatest love in existence
after cancer took my mother
You coaxed me through the days
hid the razors and ropes
and for a moment I forgot
that I'm supposed to be dead
You made me believe strange things
without using words
like there was an ocean of meaning
hidden deep within your dark blue eyes
Your lend me some of your color
each time you hold my hand
the dark circles under my eyes lighten
and my paling cheeks turn into rose
You told me everything
even that love might still exist
but our love wasn't strong enough to keep the cancer away
from taking away the last of the love in life
