Peacefulness in Mind

Two truths alone are ours to hold, 

Happiness and sadness, forever entwined.

When joy is nurtured, sorrow controlled, 

Peace finds a home within our mind.

If cancer comes one unexpected day, 

It is vital to recognize it in early days.

Timely care and treatment, the proper way

Be prompt, be vigilant, without delay.

Knowledge on prevention, awareness and diagnosis clear,

Equal to care, where accessible health teams are always

near.

Strength is built through support networks of stakeholders;

Joining hands of professionals, families, and caregivers.

Open communication and mutual understanding are vital,

Nurturing emotional resilience through coping portals.

They ease emotional stress and challenging physicals,

And help us triumph through the journey of struggle, 

Crowning the true value of survival.

Two truths alone are ours to hold,

Happiness and sadness, forever entwined.

When joy is nurtured, sorrow controlled, 

Peace finds a home within our mind.
