Beep. Beep. Beep. Beep. It's the sound that will accompany me for God knows how long. The white walls, stare at me, taunting me. The bustling and the thud of shoes going by, is the music that I will hear. The soft ticking of the clock is my only friend, yet it's my enemy. Time moves on for others, but I'm here, hoping, praying wishing, fighting. Time loves me, but has to move forward; it fights alongside me, but it also weakens. Every minute is one minute closer to surviving, to hopes and dreams. But one minute longer I have to fight, to struggle. But the pain drives me, it drives me to fight my hardest, I want to survive. I will survive, not for myself, but for my family. For my friends. I fight to give others hope. Hope to those who are worse off than me. Hope to those around me who barley can sit, who barley can talk, who barley can smile. They're so strong; I hope they know they're in my prayers. I hope they know we'll all get out together, alive.
Live; like there is no tomorrow,
Laugh; like today is you last,
Hope; for yourself and others around you.
A niece of mine was diagnosed with Leukemia –cancer of the blood- on Friday; this is something I think she would say, so this is for you K-Bell.
I know it's hard on you, I know you have to fight, but we're all here for you.
