Not My Shoes Poem by Lore Me34

Not My Shoes



You say you understand what I'm going through
but how could you for you have not walked in my shoes.
You say if I'm in remission why ain't I back to my old self.
Well just because the cancer is gone it don't mean I'm in perfect health. Not only do I have to recover physically. I also got recover mentally. So yes I thank God I'm cancer free but that don't mean sometimes I won't break down emotionally. The old me you want is gone and I must start anew. So give me support without judgment for you have not walked in my shoes.
