From abundance to watching the hand tick
Plans interrupted, violently, without empathy
Now discussions
So many hard discussions
It’s almost funny, well not quite, but that would help
I feel fine, we feel fine
But we are told we are not
I hope the scans are make believe
A picture my daughter would draw
A silly monster in the background
Max the Monster, a friend
Please please please, I would love to see it as a friend
Or most importantly, a creature I can rid
One that can’t hurt my family
Or take me away
A fleeting bad dream, oh please
But we know it is sneaky
We see its thorns speared in my body
So tight, intertwined
It takes killing me to unravel it
Its an unrelenting fight
Yet the aggressor has no mind
I am not special
Not in its eyes
But I am, I am
To my daughter
I am
So we fight
We fight my silly monster.
