Alive

by Breanna CairnsPatient, GliomaOctober 9, 2024View more posts from Breanna Cairns

I am still

Alive.

I plan to be

For at least

A few more years.

But at the same

Time,

I plan my

Death.

 

It consumes me.

 

How will those I

Leave behind feel?

How will they cope?

Will my best friend

From grade 3

Be sad?

Will she even know

That I’m gone?

What will people say

About me?

What will they

Remember?

 

I suppose no matter what

It doesn’t really matter,

I won’t have control

Over who misses me

Or what they say about me.

 

However, while

I plan to be

Alive

For at least a few

More years

I can’t quite seem

To get dying

Out of my mind.
