Number 1 Contender



Number 1 Contender

She fights with her faith and heart,
not with her fist.
Although she wants to,
she physically can't.
She has been faced with this rival twice.
This is the most feared rival in the world.
He has killed millions,
no, trillions of beings, animals included.
He takes her hair without permission.
He amputates the left side of her chest.
He makes her sick for three days a week.
He attacks her immune system.
But her faith slowly becomes a shield,
a shield of bravery,
a shield of courage,
a shield of vast confidence,
a shield the shape of a heart.
Her rival debates on whether to stay or
go.
But the shield is so powerful,
as if the naked eye stared into the
sun from two miles away,
more powerful that the gravity that pulls
the earth.
She, is my inspirational hero.
She, defeated breast cancer.
She, is the number 1 contender.
