Think of it this way:

How would you feel,
To lose someone that you love for real?

Because cancer came and snatched their life,
Just imagine all of your strife.


At this very moment someones in pain,
While everyone else is being so vain.
The world might not have to be this way,
If all you do for once is pray.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
You survived.
So why am I still crying?
I know that everything will be alright
Why am I weak
When you’ve been so strong

You fought this alone
Wouldn’t tell a soul
I had to.
I couldn’t keep this inside
How did you?

Every day you grow stronger
My heart tears open a little more
And a little more of me spills out

My dad is healed, I tell myself
There is no reason to be afraid anymore
I wait and receive no answer.
I’m lost inside myself, curled up somewhere
Too frightened to believe the truth

You may not die, but I’m still grieving
Cancer kills, no matter what
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Hiding behind that black velvet corset
Is a child that you've never seen
Hiding behind that black velvet corset
Is a girl no older than three
She is frail, pale, no match for such torture
Her blood is thick, her heart is weak,
she cannot stand much longer

As she lies in a bed of tormenting pain, she slips into the unkown.
Far away she dreams she goes,
Into the wind like a bird, for no bird has endured the black velvet corset,

no bird has experienced the pain.

Soon she feels her body giving up,
Her life slowly fading,
The madness stop around her as her body is dissipating.
The doctors say the leukaemia she had, was just too hard to handle.
She had no friends, she had no time, her life was always a constant battle.

Hiding behind that black velvet corset is a life that is no more.
Hiding behind that black velvet corset was nothing more than a sickly girl,
Surrendering her soul to bitter cold cancer.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~


I wonder, is death like dreaming
when your body is left behind
and your spirit free to wander
sends pictures to your mind?


Is it just a pleasant interlude
when a body cannot hold
the soul it once protected
because its sick or old?


Is death then eternal, or are we reborn
Do we become a gift of life- or take another form?
Will be become a breath of air - a flower, a brook, a tree
Or are there endless choices for a soul set free to be?


I hope that you are dreaming- your spirit strong and free
and that when my time on earth is done
You’ll wake and call to me

Well, in actuality the legend says that if one folds 1,000 paper cranes the gods will make them well AND grant them a wish. So, I'm sure Sadako was thinking, she'd become well, anyway, so instead of wishing for healing, she wished for world peace so the same bombing that happened to her hometown and took her life and the lives of so many others would never happen to anyone ever again.

That's how I've understood it, anyway.

@rhettford : Are you kidding me???

@yagure, Wow that is a touching story. Hmmm, maybe we can make something else stand in for cranes, like the gaialympic doves? I think theyre still under 5k each. Plus of course, if someone makes some sort of art for the siggies to make it more clear that would be great, and of course I'd stick it on the first page smile

Megan used to have a friend
And he loved her to no end.
Until one day she saw him cry
And inside she felt her whole soul die.

Matt was a lover, not a fighter
He didn't drink, never touched a lighter.
He hoped for the best, didn't curse a single soul
But through and through, he paid a toll.

Matt got struck with a fatal disease
That mad him faint and cough and wheeze.
He was weaker than he'd ever been
But he tried his hardest to keep in action.

Megan didn't know
She thought he was fine
Until he got shot
And it was his own special time.

She cried and she cried
To no avail
She hoped he'd come back
Or give her a trail.

She tried to die
She wanted to, badly
But it never worked out
So she lived her life sadly

Until one night in a dream he did call
And Megan's walls she put up, they did fall.
To this day, she's open and caring
Because in her heart, Matt's love is still flaring.
