THE THIEF

We all have our troubles so when I was told I had breast cancer, I 

panicked , of course. At that terrible word "cancer" don't we all?

But after the first reaction I took over .. after all it was MY life .. and

My body .. and I was in charge. The Power of Mind is stronger 

then any illness. I wrote this to give myself courage and determination 

that this was not going to take me away.  

The Thief 

M. C. Arvanitis

I will not give it a capital ” c “

    For it is not that important to me.

I will not give it my fear and grief

    For it is but an insidious thief

That sneaks, like a coward, in my breast.

    And tries to invade me with its test.

It can push with its malignant strife

    But it won’t stop my dreams of life.

Its reality I acknowledge as true,

    But I’ll stop it now by what I must do.

With higher truths, positive power

    I will fight it from my Universal Tower

With piercing vibes that kill. You’ll see.

    This cancer will have no hold on me.
