Its time

The mass                it's back

The chemo                waste of time. 


They tell me                  nonsense, noise

I stop listening        six months I hear the Dr. say


Get my affairs            theres no order

Say my goodbyes            to who?


I know loss            my life-long friend

Fragments of               broken thoughts


Time                     there is none left

I see                     I am going home.


This poem was extremely hard to do. My dad passed away December of '09, I was 17 years old and it was one of the worst moments of my life. Writing this poem made me think about what was going on in his head and I imagine this is how his thoughts were. Fragmented and kind of detached.
