My Loving Arms

[C&HBrownsugar]

My father passed away from brain cancer. He was cancer free for 6 years and then he noticed that there was something wrong. This was back in 2003.

I miss my dad all the time.

Did you know that the state of Oklahoma when increasing the taxes on cigarettes, put a provision in the law that the money acquired from the taxation be used for cancer research in Oklahoma. The money stays here.

In 2014, and I cried about this though I am happy for others but I still cried, they found a new way to combat the type of cancer my father had.

My father's cancer was inoperable due to the location in the brain.

my mother also died of a cancer, it was and still is for me trauma of

Cancer is a deadly dancer
dances from one to another
it killed so many and my mother

Now I am it's target too
what can I do?
But worse than that is

having no family nor friends in real who'd care
this is too much for me to bear

I won't cry as it would not help in any way
Day by day I am learning anew how gruesome fear
of lonesome life is holding me in it's grip to say

I'm gonna go, have no passion for poetry
I like clothes and fashion if I may

wishing you all have an easy and lovely day

When I first saw your tiny face
Your little body I so embraced
Your tiny hands your little feet
You looked so small in that big sheet
Your little grin your tiny cap
Your precious yawn before your nap
Your baby smell with skin so soft
That tiny diaper almost slipped off
I promised to keep you safe from harm
And always protect you in my loving arms

But as you grew, our lives did change
And once again, our world rearranged
Such a tragic loss this was our fate
To continue my life without a mate
My heart was crushed, but I kept a smile
To hide my pain from you my child
Though hard to breathe like heavy lead
For you my child, I will push ahead
I promised to keep you safe from harm
And always protect you in my loving arms

Then once again another trial
And again, for you, I tried hard to smile
When I first heard of your disease
I nearly collapsed on weakened knees
So, you’ll never know the pain I hide
I cried hard for you, deep down inside
With all my soul, “I’ll beg and plead”
My heart again torn, I cried “Why me”
I promised to keep you safe from harm
To always protect you in my loving arms

What have we done to deserve this fate?
I have already lost my true soul mate
But to lose my child, so cute and bright
To take from me now, is just not right
Please do not take my child away
I’m begging you, “Please let my baby stay”
I know you can keep her safe from harm
Please don’t take her from my loving arms
