This morning I awoke
with water in my eyes Full of gratitude the war is over inside Yesterday’s surgery made me realize That having a healthy body is the ultimate prize Still wrapped in bandages but the cancer has died And I’ve never been more sure that LOVE is ALIVE They could fill an ocean with the tears that I’ve cried But I would learn to swim after a headfirst dive Never knew my own strength or how hard I could fight I made it through the storm with a faith burning bright Lost some people on the way who couldn’t bear the sight And yet some surprised me Who came back day and night Nothing is too broken to find its way back to the light Thank you to the souls who’ve touched my heart and touched my life

AuthorOlivia has been writing poetry since the young age of 13. It was always a private passion of hers. However, after surviving cancer she decided to start sharing her work. It is important for her to connect with others going through a similar journey and hopefully provide some understanding and inspiration. #LivStrong Archives
