Cancer
Bravery is a battle in it's own
Yet this young girl still battles on
Fighting for the air she breathes
A silent struggle only she can see
Beautiful eyes filled with sparking tears
A battle worthy of one twice her years
Hair has fallen out, but she won't give up
Her family worries out of love
The doctor's faces are so grave
They fear she is a soul they cannot save
This little girl is on her own
Yet in her struggle, she is not alone
Inspired by her courageous fight
People cheer for her with all their might
This struggle with cancer is taking it's toll
Deep down inside, I think she knows
Each day her breath grows dangerously thin
Death doesn't mean that she will not win
She never gave in to this disease
At least she will be able to die at ease
Never alone, even in death
For her friends are there as she breathes her last breath
Pale cold skin, they know she is gone
But finally she is where she belongs
Back as and angel in the beautiful sky
Because true heroes never die
