George - We Will Get Through This Somehow.

Rating: 5.0


On your ear was a tiny little lump,

We waited and my heart went thump,

Why did this have to happen now?

George - We will get through this somehow.



The doctor said cancer that I did fear,

Yet you deny it and refused to hear,

Why did this have to happen now?

George - We will get through this somehow.



They said he don't understand,

But you did and trembling held my hand,

Why did this have to happen now?

George - We will get through this somehow.



I was scared, felt really helpless,

Why did you have to go through this,

Why did this have to happen now?

George - We will get through this somehow.



On times things went wrong,

Through it all we simply stayed strong,

Why did this have to happen now?

George - We will get through this somehow.



Several operation then they removed half your ear,

And that really increased my fear,

Why did this have to happen now?

George - We will get through this somehow.



Through this together we have cope,

We grew closer and I discovered the meaning of hope,

Why did this have to happen now?

George - We will get through this somehow.



Now the cancer is removed and did not stay

Together we fought and it kept away

We got stronger and are so relieved now?

George - We've got through this together somehow.

POET'S NOTES ABOUT THE POEM
This is my dad's story, he was in denial when he had a lump on his ear. After 3 ops in which they removed the lump, surrounding affected tissue including ear channel, and including plastic surgery they made him a new one. HE still denies it was anything - that was his way of coping but together we got through it all. hes been in remission now for several years: D
