Good Morning or perhaps afternoon or evening wherever you may be; we are happy you have stopped by to visit. Yesterday, Brish M., brought to our attention the importance of Breast Cancer Awareness and performing self-breast checks. Early detection can possibly save lives, according to the American Cancer Society.
Last October (2012) I wrote a poem in honor of 'Breast Cancer Awareness', which was originally published on Yahoo! Voices:
He Watches Her
He watches her suffer from afar
She begins to drift, lose her bearings; strange, bizarre
She is hypnotized by his stare
She feels his eyes pierce her soul; realistically unaware that he is physically there
He forcefully attempts to stop
He is in too deep, fixated; self-control rot
His dark eyes feel warm and inviting
Tainted thoughts fill her mind; she wants to give in; stop fighting
He feeds off of all she has
She is weak, frail; when will he conquer me; peace alas
She begins to drift, lose her bearings; strange, bizarre
She is hypnotized by his stare
She feels his eyes pierce her soul; realistically unaware that he is physically there
He forcefully attempts to stop
He is in too deep, fixated; self-control rot
His dark eyes feel warm and inviting
Tainted thoughts fill her mind; she wants to give in; stop fighting
He feeds off of all she has
She is weak, frail; when will he conquer me; peace alas
She slowly begins to shut her eyes
Please don't take her away; faith and hope begin to cry
Please don't take her away; faith and hope begin to cry
For more of my poem and its hopeful ending please visit ~ He Watches Her

As always, THANK YOU for visiting. Please do not forget to honor this special month, hug a survivor.
With warm appreciation,
Dana A.
