Mirrored Shadow Of Lies

Missing image
foggy day, my mind wants to play
bushes clog my brain, makes me insane
muggy water sloshing like a tidal wave
will any brain cells be left or any to save

cancer has it's way to move right in
slithers in the night like a basket of sin
throws nasty germs all over the place
your mind and the big c starts a race

who will win this mirrored lake effect
you can't see what you want for it's wrecked
shadows haunting me when I look at life
I want sunshine and I have given strife

is it enough to battle this clogged brain
when it insist on being muddled, dirty rain
a lake of mirrors that show what it's really like
the big c playing a number on my psych

    Its been very long since ive read someone who has written rhyme with good metre.

    The emotional attachment this brings to ones mind, is very significant. And that is what I look for in a poem. I guess thats why I fell in love with this peice. Bravo!

    You tackled this prompt pretty well. This was such a nice written piece...but kind of sad and lost at the same time. Best of luck to you in the contest.

    So sad

    to read of your experience! You write of your pain brilliantly & with a clarity that shows a heart that's being refined. That you can express yourself in this way is a blessing to us all. for being so brave as to share your journey with us. Dear one, we are all dieing from the time we take our first breath. Some of us are given shorter life spans than others. All is in His plan. This world system doesn't have much more time before the return of The King of the Universe. This is what I endeavor to think of when my mortality & frail health rear up before me. I know totally what you mean by the big c playing a number on your psych! It's a constant battle with the The Christ has won the victory, now we must be strong while we wait for Him.
