I cannot have a normal life
Thought I've tried so hard
You keep overprotecting me
Trying to save my life
Normality is something I want
Something I can never have
Why is it you can't let me live
I've been trying so hard
All I wanted was normality before I leave
I haven't got long this illness is killing me
So let me live my life to the full
You said I'm to young to make my own choices
How can I die before I've lived
You have to let me have normality
i don't want my life to be all medicine
Treatments and cancer
I need normality
It's the one thing
That you say
I can't have
Author notes
please know this is purely fiction I don't actually have cancer But I wanted to exspress emotions that come with it.
