Was It a Shock
• 07/08/24 at 11:12PM •Was it a shock,
or a hidden fear,
when I was told,
"Less than a year?"
"Three to four months",
not wanting to hear.
I won't be around,
not even a year.
Wait one! I'm the one,
who's dying,
so why are you,
the one trying?
To take all the
minutes and time,
away from me,
my family entwined.
A grand gesture,
I most certainly say,
but thank you NO!
Not on my day.
