PostPoems Be Artistic. Be Creative. Be Inspired!

I woke up to find you having another bad night. 
You had a coughing spell and there was nothing that I could do. 
Giving you your medicines isn't a chore, it is a necessity. 
I know you hate going outside for fear of what people will think. 
It is alright chemotherapy will do that to your hair. 
I could buy you a hat, or even a wig. 
Please don’t cry, I just want you to be happy. 

I’m shaving my head. 
Piece by Piece, the hair falls, 
like worries eventually it will be swept away. 
Taking all of this weight off of my shoulders. 
Praying for you to feel well again. 
Doing whatever it takes to make you feel better about yourself. 
So I decided to shave all of my hair off tonight. 

The doctor says that your health is improving. 
Yeah I can find the scrapbooks. 
I know you miss Tommy, I do too. 
He'll be back before you know. 
Don't worry he is a fighter just like you. 
So sleep well tonight. 

I’m shaving my head. 
Piece by Piece, the hair falls, 
like worries eventually it will be swept away. 
Taking all of this weight off of my shoulders. 
Praying for you to feel well again. 
Doing whatever it takes to make you feel better about yourself. 
So I decided to shave all of my hair off tonight. 

It seems as if there isn't enough time. 
I still don't know what I will do without you. 
I’m not sure if I am strong enough to say goodbye. 
Your hands feel so weak in mine. 
Tell me how to take all the pain away. 

I’m shaving my head.
