MAYBE
Maybe, maybe all the things that you controlled successfully is undone by the one that you can never control. Maybe the death is the boss of all the uncontrollable in this world. Maybe we all despise and fear death to find morality in that. Maybe it's wrong. Either way you are all destined to be here to read about a girl who has no more than a month's stay here. (*Cancer cells are like strange little devils, no?*)
It seems I have more cells in my stomach than most of you. Finally some win found my way in that aspect. "In a year I would complete my pilot training and would become the first woman pilot to have emerged from my town" is the every night's default dream. After a similar dream, one fine morning , I woke up to a severe stomach ache only to find that I have warm welcomed enough oncogenic cells inside my little tummy somehow. Well enough numbers to sabotage any chances of survival. Does anyone know how it feels to dream of something? Have you ever found the purpose of your existence and wanted to live just to see the purpose fulfill? DOES ANYONE WORTH THE LIFE AS GOOD AS ME? If yes, you'd get the unbounded pain the heart feels when your little castle is shattered away entirely by some form less, worthless, invisible cells. All that's been there, that's been done so far so, sought NOTHINGNESS. Entirely NOTHINGNESS. (*It feels invincible to write persistently in pain. Totally. *)
Pain is an abstract and a subjective concept. You can never share it even if you wish so. Everyone wanted to take off my pain. Some sympathised. Some gazed. Some tried cracking me up. To that I did what they wanted me to. As a single parent the way my mom carried herself all through this was stunning. She understood how averted I felt towards someone sympathising, without me telling her and never ever did that herself nor let someone do that to me. For her. At least for her.... (* please flush me out of the hospital ! Please shoo me out of the hell! *)
For two days , treatments were in full fledge. I wondered how mandatory yet meaningless these treatments were. In few days I was brought home bald headed with doctors disclosing any possibility of hopes. From then till now I travelled few places with mom and friends, did some serious shit and updated my coping mechanisms somehow everyday. (*Oh dear mom, oh dear! *)
Mom, you were that brisk moon light finding it's way in my ever deserted island of darkness. The only drop of water in my sore throat. The only hope. This pain is never ending. The flashes of memories that I have with you aren't stopping anymore. The fear is increasing. All that I wanted till now was the permanent relief from all this pain, all this humiliation, all this demons. But mom, now that I see death calmly approaching me with a welcoming hands, the angel that I wanted to embrace, I realise that I am stuck in between the angel and demon not knowing what is what. All my angels and demons swap positions. Heart and soul are in the only pursuit of relief and pain laughs at me mockingly. How pleasing the sight is? How strange yet pleasing? Don't know if I should laugh or cry, mom, for what the voices of the inner says. (*Don't know if my own inner voice is an angel or demon?*)
Angel or Demon? No matter what it is, . It's ultimately my next destination that I can never change. I am no butterfly and my death is no flap to cause a hurricane miles away. Or what if some butterfly's flap some thousand miles away is the reason of my state. Maybe, maybe the things that you controlled successfully is undone by the one that you can never control. Maybe the death is the boss of all the uncontrollable in this world. Maybe I am gonna have my beloved hair back again there. Maybe at least there, the light cuddles me with love yet again. MAYBE
