It stalks me from within,
No cure,
No way out,
I'm stuck.
I pray,
I beg,
Leave me illness,
Even just for a day.
It listens to my sobs,
My cries of helplessness,
It feels my fear,
My life fading.
Test after test,
Appointment after appointment,
I can't fight anymore,
My body failing.
I'm weak,
Powerless,
Nothing can hold me up,
Nothing can keep me strong.
I fail,
I give up,
Take me,
I don't want to suffer anymore.
