Dedicated to my friend who is currently struggling in a battle with cancer. I’ve always looked up to her because of her bright smile and beautiful, long hair. Many things have changed since the day she was diagnosed with Hodgkin’s Lymphoma… may she forever stay strong. Best wishes… from her friend, Liz Sapphire.

Imminent change after first diagnosis

Bittersweet impending doom alas

Gazing beyond the effervescent sunrise

To see how dreary the day has passed.

Like twilight sparkles, hope lingers

Life still remains, barely, after Death

With a gripping hand, His cold fingers

Eats away the leering wreath…

Of tangled, mingled, unseperable faith

For the evanescent beauty cascading forth

Changes forthcoming, like winter, like snow

Like abandoned shells among the shore;

What if we payed closer attention

What if we really cared

Would we notice the imminent changes

Would we notice her latent despair?
