So now, I have cancer

So now, I have cancer I join a new sisterhood my time is so precious now
I wish I could do all those things I left for tomorrow.. but I am weak,
this chemo taste like drinking ten cups of coffee makes me cranky..
I look exotic with this scarf but I miss combing my hair...
The kids take my picture I know they are worried and
I smile brave for them as they take turns by my side
Soon I will know if this battle is my last one
I drive home and take my time stopping to buy rose colored sunglasses...
