Agonizing, each moment
Going through the day, a torment
Unfocused, unmoored in an anxious wait
In a turmoil, trying to project a calm state
Eyes wide open, but blunted sight
Ears that hear, but listen, not quite
A plastic smile, trying to hide
The tsunami raging inside
Destiny hanging in balance delicate
Test results with power to upturn fate
Benign or malignant, the odds are even here
It could be worse than imagined- is the constant fear
The phone rings, her heart stops for a second, it seems
As she braces herself to face the demise of her dreams..
