Cancer

"i'm tasting nothing but four words;
please don't leave me."

An evil condition or thing that spreads destructively. It destroys the body, steals your soul. One originating in epithelium, tending to recur after excision and to metastasize to other sites. It never leaves and nothing can abolish it. It won't stop, it'll never stop.

It not only annihilates the carrier, it demolishes the people around it. Taking as it spreads, it's eventually going to reach us all. There is no more hope, no more faith, no more trust. Security is unattainable.

What happens when trust is lost? Where do we run to when everything and everyone vanishes before our eyes? When all seems lost, our very existence is perishable. All we can do is run. Run down that road that we can't define. Run down that road without knowing where we will go. For there is always a road we must follow and one road may be the only one to lead us home.
death is the road to awe.
