Second Journey

What have I seen?
What have I not seen?
For what will I be remembered?
Will I be remembered at all?
Lymphoma and Melanoma
live within me
side-by-side with the rest of me,
taking it away from me
like a jealous parent,
snatching up my life
because it means nothing
to anyone but me; still,
there is hope
I am stronger
or perhaps bolder
or even more tenacious
but when the lamenting is done
I will be gone and
on my second journey.
