A LOSING BATTLE

By Teresa Kander


Fighter? Warrior? Survivor?

No, that’s not who I am this time.

I once fought cancer and won,

But now there will be no final victory--

I may win battles along the way,

But the war will go to the enemy.

It’s not that I will ever give up on life;

I plan to live every day to the fullest.

Cancer won’t steal my joy in the days to come,

Even when it comes to steal my life.



TDK 10/5/24
