Analysis of Neglected lumps



for 3 years I was given the go by
while you all neglected my cry

I was convinced I was absurd
when I was really unheard

you all made me feel crazy
for always feeling hazy

when my lump was there
I felt like no one had a care

as if MY MASS
were just another bypass

after getting diagnosed
I felt the weight on my shoulders arose

those lumps as big as trump
were finally taken to the dump
