Yet my feet remain on the ground
So many feelings bubbling up and down
Like a of torrent; roiling water; these emotions
I don’t know what to think or feel
Is this diagnosis truly real?
All was going well; blood tests etcetera
But now I’m free falling; terrified; I cried
Yesterday I was so freaking out
Today I’m deflated; simply feeling tired
Explanations given; I listened; understood
Things aren’t quite as bad; it’s actually good
It is operable; indications are looking upward
So now I’m treading water…
Waiting for appointments; more tests
Praying; hoping for the best…
