Chemo #2
I can feel it creepin in The sickness in my bod again My back is locked My knees just shake The tears roll down As I break Cuz I can't seem to hold it in Not 1 more sec Not 1 more friend Just want to hide alone again Until I pass through every sin My hands are tied behind my back My head is cold It's bald in fact They want so much I want to nap Just let me rest Til’ I come back...

Anxious but unafraid
The clock just makes me wait Plucking every hour Like a new suspicious date There's no room to hate Friends hold me everyday Tell em grab a plate Tonight we gon exaggerate!!! Cuz we don't choose our fate And I wasn't built to break So buzz me down and call me mate I salute my life and ain't it great?!?!?! Built on trust and LOVE Singing, dancing, writing, hugs Lift my eyes above and set it free you peaceful dove... #phuckcancer #readyforwar #thetimeisnow #teamworkmakesthedreamwork #baldisbeautiful #survivor #LivStrong 💪🏻 Day by day
and through it all You never let me do it all Holding hands with hair that falls I don't deserve you girls at all Love you to the moon and back I swear you keep my heart intact These aren't lines Just simply facts thank you both for having my back!!! Born to shake
Never to break Fly like the wind Sky full of paint Mind full of dreams Swirling around Nothing more peaceful Than watery sounds Head in the air Feet on the ground Saturday morning I feel my heart pound Just let it go Like balloons flying bare Put on your best smile We're only 1/2 way there #poet #poetry #writer #optimist #balloons #loveroflife #letsflyaway #LivStrong 🎈🎈 83 days and then it's a wrap
83 days I CAN do this in fact 83 days my body's been hacked 83 days but my soul is intact 11 more weeks of physical pain Fevers, and aches, and nausea again 11 more weeks of long sleepless nights But that's when I dream That's when I write... The mornings are hard so that's when I prayI fall to my knees and give thanks each day For this life is a fight But I came with my gloves So I CAN and I WILL Live each day with LOVE #breastcancer #survivor#chemochronicles #poet #oldmind#youngheart #soulsearchin 'Twas the night before Chemo,
when all through the house Not a creature was stirring, not even a mouse; Anxious in bed with nausea and doubt The princess kept saying "No tears are allowed!!!" For what would it change? Would it make my fear rest? Would it undo 12 weeks of IVs and tests? Would it lighten my load or undo my stress? Would it make my hair stay? Or bring back my breasts? ' Twas the night before Chemo, so I just crawled in bed I silenced my thoughts and then bowed my head Just speak to your storm as the old scripture goes Jesus has got it under control #peacebewithyou #speaktoyourstorms #speaklife #reflection #prayer #chemo #icandoallthingsthroughchristwhostrengthensme #survivor#breastcancer #breastcancerawareness#bca #onedayatatime #LivStrong Never was there ever
a day that would pass That she didn't treat like it was her last Under the lights she sparkled with class In diamonds and flowers Drowning so fast Counting the days and thanking her friends All of my life Where have you been? When the music is over in the city of sin She just breathes deep and takes it all in I swear when it hits It cuts like a knife All of the pieces I'm hiding inside And there's not enough time Or words I could say But the kindness I've witnessed Just blows me away!!! Thank you to everyone who brought Summer to my Fall. God bless #eyeswideshut #isthislovethatimfeeling #LivStrong #WCW
Shout Out to the ROCKSTARS the BRAVE SOULS and the REBELS To the women rockin bald heads Ya’ll deserve a medal As I sat on Floor 14 today watching every patient The tears kept rolling down my face Not sure if I could take it To the women who are smiling and holding it together You are my new heros Couldn’t think of someone better Behind those silky scarves and behind the wigs you buy I see a room of suited soldiers as I look into your eyes Shout Out to the ROCKSTARS the BRAVE SOULS and the REBELS May the loved ones that we know Never have to face this level For the road is long and hard and the path is just our own Thank you to my God For never leaving me alone Isn't Manhattan pretty
in the morning when she cries? The raindrops wash away the pain she can not hide The Angels spread their wings above the city's sky Allow us to reflect on the seasons of our lives Isn't Manhattan pretty sometimes when she cries?? As she stirs up our thoughts and brings in a new tide For the clouds are simply dancing Somewhere up above While I'm just down here splashing In my dreams and love Isn't Manhattan pretty especially when she cries??? I'm learning it pours hard right before the light 🗽💦☔️🌞💖🙏🏻🎀 #poet #look for the light #LivStrong There once was a girl with sun in her hair 💁
She didn't have a single care She loved the world 🌎 and making friends She sang and danced 🎤💃 amongst the wind Always looking for something new 😎 Under the sky was where she grew 🌌 Stars in her eyes A smile on her lips 💋 Everyone wanted to take a sip 🍷 She gave and she gave and then she gave more!!! Always questioning What's it All For??? 💭 The more that she learned the less that she knew 📚 Just craved sharing love with souls that were true 💕 Perhaps it was wrong to dream of this Life Where flowers were pink 🌺🌸 and people were kind But no matter how dark the clouds were ahead 💨 She always just looked for the sunshine instead 🌞 |
AuthorOlivia has been writing poetry since the young age of 13. It was always a private passion of hers. However, after surviving cancer she decided to start sharing her work. It is important for her to connect with others going through a similar journey and hopefully provide some understanding and inspiration. #LivStrong Archives
