Cancer

The emotional effects of cancer in a loved one.

Murderer
cloaked with invisibility
gnarled and deformed
retarded and evil
you lurk
destroying on a whim

Murderer
my hate for you is immeasurable
i want to choke you
to take you between my hands
crush your malignant intentions
drown you in my tears

Murderer
you choose your worthy victims
heedless of those left behind
to yearn for the goodness
the smiles and hugs
the simple pleasure of their presence
