Miranda

Miranda sits along the shore
and looks out to the sea
She needs some time to be alone
and find serenity

Her doctor's news was very bad
a dagger to her soul
Her future most uncertain now
the cancer in control

Oh how could this be happening?
Miranda cries aloud
It all seems so impossible
the truth is disalowed

The hours pass in solitude
she gathers strength to fight
Miranda walks up to her car
then back home for the night

Tomorrow she will try again
to find a better way
This battle will not end tonight
more options she will weigh
