I joined Steemit to fill the time
it costs nothing not even a dime
It was slow to meet and greet
But I found a community that could not be beat
We all started as friends a few months ago
You said hi and I responded hello
You dropped me a line to my blog
It was about losing my pal and dog
You understood my sadness and said kind words
you told me about your love of birds
some talked about my love for my wife
but honestly its her that keeps me living this life
the cancer is a enemy thats hard to keep at bay
I fight it hard every night and day
I thought I was alone with her in this fucking fight
But Steemit came alive and made me see the light
I assumed that you people would be like most
But now your my friends and I want to raise a toast
You see cancer to me is like fighting a ghost
Now my Steemit friends here stand like a unbreakable fence post
You came to me rescue by letting me vent
Cancer may win but my courage cant be bent
My friends here me when I feel like crying
And please know its not because I am afraid of dieing
You all will always be here and make me stronger
You've taught me a lesson, and I want to stay longer
You are all my friends and in my heart and soul
To me you are all worth any amount on a hwy with a toll
No matter what I do or say
You friends keep my illness and cancer at bay
I am what I am when on here with all of you
I know when I am gone you will look after my Babyloooo
I cannot thank you all or shake each mans hand
I cannot reach out and kiss each ladies cheek
The distance between us is just too far
But I wish we were all singing together in a bar
I am at peace and know you are true friends
I got the giggles like when you get the bends
will be safe and secure
Because all my Steemit friends will help her endure
I truly love you all from the bottom of my heart
Brian
