As Cancer Takes Another Victim
It feels like walking through a long tunnel with no lights, tripping over every rock, surfaced roots, and patch of uneven ground you could possibly run into. You know where you are at, but you're not fully aware of where you're going, and you have absolutely no idea when you are going to get there. Cancer is the road often traveled but not often understood, especially for those who have never experienced it.

My Dead Letter to You
To the boy that found me when we needed each other most, A week ago I was begging you to come see me in my dreams. Come give me the last goodbye I never got while you were still here. As the days went on I kept wondering why I hadn’t seen you, why you evaded my pleas. And then when I had almost given up on calling for you, there you were.

I Was His First
To the girl that tried to erase me, The reason that you don’t trust him, is because you know what you did to me. And just know, that someday, loving you will become hard too, because love is hard, and someday some other girl will come along and whisper promises of a sweet and simple love in his ear just like you did. And he will give up on you, the way he did me. And before you know it, you will wonder where you went wrong. Just like I did. But it wasn’t just me or how complicated our love had become that tore us apart. It was also you, that left us in a broken state that was unsalvageable.

The Struggle Between Sickness and Strength
The Struggle Between Sickness and Strength My mom’s voice echoes in my head, “ Do you have any questions?” The question itself hangs in the air like a fog following a storm that has yet to settle. Do I have any questions, she asks? I appreciate her concern, but what about her? Is she okay? Is she going to be okay? Is she scared? Is she asking the vary question no one has the answer to? -- Is she going to live? My mom has been through so many things, her battles linger in my head like a war cry as she announces the next battle to come -- the ultimate battle: The one against cancer. The sword of this battle is set in my shaking hands, her presence weighs on my shoulders. There is no greater obstacle in life than learning how to overcome something you cannot control. This is the obstacle that will make every other struggle seem unimportant.
