HER DAYS ARE NUMBERED

Her days are numbered
She was the only one who knew
The world filled with warmth
Is gonna end like dew
She thought of those she loved
Her fears aren’t new
But now it’s time, and she should say adieu
This thing that eats her inside
She had no control, it stab her life like a knife
Nothing can be done, no cure
It seems to be stealing her life
It’s so deadly, but she has determined to live for the moment
She smiled through her tears, she had no choice…
