The Tragedy of the Chronically Ill, Deux

I see disappointed eyes,
You see only resilience in mine,
Instead of fear & despair you desire,
I am sick and not dead,
You desire to taste my terror,
Instead you see only undying hope,
I sure hope I am not a dope,
And all is not in vain,
Simply wanting to live,
Ought not be a controversy,
As the the world spins in nothingness,
We just desire some meaning,
Life in this just full of distress,
Just continue with some measure of finess.
