When I Was Diagnosed/What I Didn’t Know – A Poem
When I was diagnosed,
I thought my life was over.
What I didn’t know
was that it was just beginning.
When I was diagnosed,
I wanted to give up,
to let the darkness claim me.
What I didn’t know
was that my light would grow brighter,
shining like a beacon
for all to see.
When I was diagnosed,
I thought my battle was over,
that I would stop fighting.
What I didn’t know
was that my battle was just beginning
and I would become stronger because of it.
When I was diagnosed,
my life began again.
I crawled through the darkness,
picking up the pieces of myself
that I had forgotten were part of me.
When I was diagnosed,
I realised that there was light within me
and that I had to let it shine
if I was to truly live.
When I was diagnosed,
I learned what it truly was
to be strong and to be brave,
and what courage really was,
that I was all of these things .
When I was diagnosed,
I learned what it was
to be truly thankful,
and to realise that everything in my life
was a gift to be thankful for.
When I was diagnosed,
I thought my life was over.
What I didn’t know
was that it was just beginning…
