Cancer
Why are you leaving me?
Can’t you see it at all?
You’ve been here all of my life
And you think that you can just walk out
I never thought that you’d be gone
Never thought your song would be a sad one
Never hoped more that you’d stay
Took you for granted cause you never went away
Fading like starlight into dreams
All you are is memory
I’m just afraid because you are part of me
I never really had to say the goodbye
I thought you were as old as eternity
For some reason you’d never go
You were at every major event of my life
My wedding, my death, and everything in between
But today you are just disappearing
I never prepared to lose you
You were a rock that I built around
And now you are so much less
I’m lonely now even though you’re still there
But you aren’t even you anymore
So why am I still speaking
Or seeing, I’m hiding my grief in my hands
