Softly Softly

by Vicki Higgins - Cancer

softly softly
slower than before
the pain comes and goes
and im not so sure

softly softly
a head above water
and again i can breath
because, the evil, i caught her.

softly softly
swallow the fear
smile once again
and wait for it to reappear

softly softly
i exhale the indifference
not so bothered about the changes
or about the simple differences

softly softly
it gets easier to see
and so much lighter
and incredible to simply be

softly softly
i forget what i worried about
i forget what the pain was
i just forget what it is i doubt
