Every time I look in the mirror
What do I see?
My shadow , all hazy
Just a glimpse of the old me
I see darkness surrounding
A lost & lonely girl
Stood there, in her hooded cloak
Shielding from the pain of her new world
A reflection of scars
A mind full of fear
Will it come back?
Are the voices I hear
Anxiety swirling like a whirl wind
Through my bones
I can feel my legs shaking
Knelt down so alone
Black streaks down my cheeks
Tears stinging my face
Will I ever accept it?
My shadow of disgrace

Well written and expressed
Thank you
Welcome
Very good poem. It must be hard to go through the trauma of having cancer and praying that it doesn't return. Don't be disgraced. Remember what you went through and think of how brave and strong you are!
Thank you, I know I am fairly positive most of the time and I am so so strong, I'm proud of myself for how many I've overcome 🙂
