on her own terms

the note is not good.
she's dying.
cancer. or so they say,
or think. what do doctors
know anyway.
it's not for sure, but
she leans
towards the darkness
even on a sunny day,
so her money is on
death.
you half believe her,
but she's too strong
and stubborn to go out
that way. the earth needs
to circle the sun
a few more years,
and decades before
she let's go for good,
leaving the room
and you on her own terms.
