Molly,
I hope this goes through. I am having trouble getting my posts to work. I have certainly had thoughts about this. As an artist, I have expressed them a lot of different ways. I have an image I can e-mail you that goes with this poem. It summarizes my introspection about how my life is changing. Use it however you wish. Thanks for asking us. Sue
Out of the Chrysalis
Before I had cancer
I knew I was your lover
But I didn’t know I was
The air you breathe
I didn’t know you were mine
Before I had cancer
god was far away,
Hidden, behind my mother’s
Stained glass morality
But now she speaks
To me in dreams
Before I had cancer
I knew there was suffering
I knew the earth needed
A savior
But I didn’t know
It was me
Before I had cancer
I remembered
I dreamed of tomorrows
But now
There is only today
I wait
Here in my chrysalis
In the darkness
In the stillness of truth
Superman’s truth
transforming
