A Soul Cancer

It's seeds are planted Deep within the core Then spreads quickly through the body! Like a malignant tumor It grows pouncing on the fragile being, There is no remedy to relieve the pain No medication to take No cure, For spiritual death is imminent! It sometimes happens because We are to receptive, gentle and kind Or perhaps too loving, Trying to satify everyone, This disease causes us to suffer the slings and arrows of outragous fortune! Whatever the case, It is surely not or fault or is it? This cancer consumes our essence, It blows out our flame, Leaving us only a hollow shell to remain. Like a candle in the wind Without our soul Our light, Like a legend Only the memories when we had once been whole Left to linger in the shadows of the past!
