Cancer!
You Ain't Woman Enough To Take My Man!!!!!
We were so happy and then you came along, you thought you could take him
from me, but I fooled you. You thought I'd leave him and just let him
succumb to your wicked ways. Well, you picked the wrong man to fool with
didn't you. I remember well the first time I heard your name, it scared
me at first, I 'm going to lose him to you , I thought. Then I realized
how very much he meant to me and I fought you. Oh, you were a worthy
opponent, I'll give you that. But, you had no idea who you were fooling
with, did you?
He came home from the Dr. one day from a checkup and he whispered your
name, I remember it like yesterday. Nov 21st the Monday before
Thanksgiving. He said he thought he was going to be with you a long
time. He said your name with such reverence and mystery. I looked in his
eyes and said who is she? He said your name was Squamous Cell
Carcinoma and that you had entered his sinus cavity. He said he had to go to San
Antonio, Texas to be with you. That he would be there with you for about
four months. I cried, I cursed, I threw things, I said I would not let
him go to you. Well, you won that round didn't you. But, I followed you
and him there. I sat for four months watching you entice him to just go
with you, to just leave me, and our children and grandchildren behind. I
would beg and plead with him to stay with us. But you would always be
there lurking in the shadows , beckening him come closer, feel my fire.
I would sit at night and ask God to save him from you, to release the
hold you had on him. I would promise anything and everything, just to
hold him one more day. I fought you like a tiger and I HATED you with
every breath I took. I wrote you letters, begging you to let him come
home to us. You laughed. How you laughed. You were so seductive and
cunning. You almost had me believing that you had won him for good. But
I held on. I wasn't just going to hand him over to you, oh no, you would
have to come and get him. And you would have to go through me to do
that. I got smart, I read about you and what you had done to other
family's, I ask for help from everyone I met. I dared you to come any
closer, you paniced and started hedging your bets. I fought harder, you
made one final try to get him. But, I stood strong and said ,YOU WILL
NOT HAVE HIM! You smiled wistfully, and said come on you know he would
be better offf here with me. I lunged for you, I ripped your hair, I
punched you, I kicked you, I beat the devil out of you. And I said this
is it, you will not take my husband! I scared you, didn't I? You thought
I was weak and afraid, you thought you could beat me. Well, who's got
him now???? You ran scared and you haven't looked back, but I watch for
you always. And if you should ever touch him again , I'll be there right
by his side. ANd I WILL fight you again and again. YOU WILL NOT WIN!
I love my husband and Cancer, YOU Ain"T WOMAN ENOUGH TO TAKE MY
MAN!!!!!!!!!!
It has been nine months since treatment and he is working and playing
and enjoying life to the fullest. We have a new granddaughter and he is
a very proud grandfather. He tells me often that he never would have
made it without me, but I know who to thank and every night I thank God
that he was on our side. Kathalise Martin
HOPE HAS A PLACE
One look at love
and you may see
it weaves a web
over mystery,
all ravelled threads
can rend apart
for hope has a place in the lovers heart
Hope has a place in the lover"s heart.
Whispering world,
A sigh of sighs,
The ebb and the flow
of the oceans tides,
One breath,one word
may end or start
a hope in the place of a lover's heart.
Look to love
you may dream,
and if it should leave
then give it wings,
But if such a love
is meant to be;
Hope is home and the heart is free.
Under the heaven's
we jouney far,
on roads of life
we're the wanderers,
So let love rise,
So let love depart,
Let hope have a place in the lover's heart.
Hope has a place in a lover's heart.
Look to love and you may dream,
and if it should leave
then give it wings.
But if such a love
is meant to be,
Hope is home, and the heart is free
Hope is home, and the heart is free
