Fight The Fight

By: Wayne B Metcalfe

Sometimes people's strength is measured by the way
They fight the fight come what may
You are such a special soul
To be like you is a worthy goal.

When life is incredibly tough and it seems you have faced enough
It seems there's always more heartache and pain at the door
It’s the peace you seek, more and more
It takes a special soul to fight the fight, wage the war
To beat the cancer at the door,
Time and time you beat it down
Your soul's too strong, you will not drown.

So what helps to give you strength
To keep you getting to your feet
Is it purely love or something more
Your son and daughter at the door
They're you're heaven here on Earth
They have loved you since their birth
We love you Mum don't let us go
We need you now you gotta know
So use their love to help you through

You have good friends who love you so
Silent prayers and tears say so
So many people look up to you
And wish they had your strength too
You have shown by your fight
Your soul is shining with the light.

So when you're dark and spirit's low
Just think of those that love you so
Their prayers are with you in your dreams
No matter how bleak it sometimes seems
You are special don't you know
A gentle Angel told us so.
So fight the fight and wage that war
We will help you close that door.
