THIEFso important? so short? Something so precious; sometimes even vain? We don't understand the reasoning Yet we are faced with the pain. Cancer is the silent monster we all fear It comes so quick, like a thief in the night It attacks everyone near and dear... My aunt battled it twice in '98 She lost one of her breasts but the thief wasn't taking her Now it has claimed my friends' Mom It struck deep and hard, she couldn't go on. She left kids, a home and family behind She was always kind... Lay your head to rest, friend of mine You're in God's hands now... The thief will hurt you no more.
