A short poem about how our days are spent before and after a life threatening disease

Another day
Just like all the others
The sun came up
The sun went down
Nothing different
Nothing changed
Time gone by, time wasted
On this very day

But after today
I'll leave my mark
Finding the path of a life
Where only my heart will reign
After this very day

There will be each day
Every moment of time
Something new
Something different
Something worthwhile
Something consequential

After this very day
Wasted time will never be
For now I am alive
Now that I have cancer
