Silver Linings
Amid trials and fears,
Amidst the pain, the shedding tears,
There lies a strength, a hidden power,
A resilience that blooms like a flower.
Cancer’s grip may seem so tight,
But within the darkness shines a light,
A glimmer of hope, a spark of grace,
A smile that lights up the weary face.
Through treatments so harsh and days so long,
There’s a melody in the fighter’s song,
A rhythm of courage, a dance of might,
Defying the odds, embracing the fight.
In the heart of the struggle, beauty resides,
Like a phoenix soaring, hope never hides.
It rises from ashes, with wings unfurled,
A testament to the resilience of the world.
So take heart, dear warrior, and stand tall,
For within you, there’s a strength to enthrall,
Embrace the journey with joy as your guide,
For even in pain, beauty can’t be denied.
