Never ending
It tries to swallow you whole
But it can’t take you
The more you fight
The worse it gets
The pain grows
But your anger shows
You’re not about to give in
Cause if you do
That means you’ll never win
This never ending battle
Between you and the cancer
The Kemo kills the poison
Eases the suffering
It helps when you’re afraid
But it won’t cure this disease
You still fight
Day after day
The pain consumes you
You keep fighting
Until you can’t fight anymore
