26 and Dying of Cancer

26 and dying of cancer
she’s as nice as could be
and just starting her life.
Where the hell is the
justice in that?

Why in this world does a
horrible deadly thing like
that have to happen to a nice
young woman?

26 and dying of cancer
soon she’ll be 26 and
dead,

which is like a sacrilege,
which is like an affront,
which so unfair and so
wrong that this young
woman will soon be
gone from this world
before she had a shot
at living in it.
