I had an idea what it was you know,
So I don't know why I was in shock,
But I got the shakes! I got a fright!
Good job I was in trousers and not a frock!
So I had my head on straight, oh I did!
And went to see this surgeon true,
He examined me, said; ‘Yep, it's a tumour!'
‘And this is what I intend to do!'
'Remove it!!!' Well of course I knew that!
You know, I am sitting here like this,
Trying to say how I feel this night,
But the words on this page are, somewhat,
Lacking in the depth of my fright!
I am never at a loss for words you know!
Oh no, not this poet here!
But I think I have lost my prolific-ness,
And I think its overtaken by fear!
Cos I cant seem to tell it as it is,
Somehow my mind isn't clicked into gear,
And yep, I know I am reiterating…
It's down to that damn ruddy fear!
So 2 brain tumours were not enough!
God decided to give me another!
Oh blimey o'reilly, what can I do!
Cos I sure the hell cant tell my mother!!
And the thing is this, I told very few,
My mate and my daughter alone!
And outside the hospital I sat and cried,
Sobbing to my daughter down the phone!
I think it was only cos I was in shock!
Cos I don't normally fall apart quite that way,
But I guess cos its another damn tumour,
The tears really had reason to fall today!
This one is inside the roof of my mouth,
So I need to get into focus again!
Cos if he doesn't remove it now,
It will damn well grow into my brain!
So he told me today he's removing it,
And blimey, just in 3 weeks time!
And that's when I went sick with fear!
Oh no, I am far from feeling fine!!
You know, my poor brain is battererd!
It's gone through so much strife!
But I tell myself each and every day,
This is all just a part of life!
But I still wish I could have a break!!
And get on with my happy life!
Cos I have to get it sorted out!
You see, I'm going to be my Rich's wife!
