REQUEST!!! 🎧 - Soon You'll Get Better - TS

Sitting in the doctors office, you were nervous. But not as nervous as your girlfriend, Taylor. Her coat buttons were tangled in her hair, her leg bouncing under the table, and her hand clutching yours firmly. That was only the first visit. The dignosis. Cancer.

Every night from then on you had to take 2 pills from orange bottles. Each pill adding to Taylor's fear. Taylor used to occasionally whisper a prayer before bed, usually before an award show or concert. Now it was every night for you. Praying for your health. Desperately praying to Jesus to just make you 'better'. To heal you.

A few times spread across a 4 week cycle you had to go into hospital and sit through painful chemo sessions. It was about every day for one week, and then 3 weeks of rest. It was painful and tiring but Taylor sat with you the whole time. You'd talk to her about how much you liked those nicer nurses, the ones who stopped to chat to you when Taylor couldn't make it. You just amke the best out of a bad deal.

Taylor preferred delusion. She pretending it wasn't real. That you were healthy and lerfect and nothing was wrong. She'd paint your kitchen neon green and nrighten up the sky, just for you. Even after years of treatment, nothing had helped so far. So instead now she comes with a guitar and a song, just to make you smile during chemo.

"Hey, I wrote a new song about you babe..." Taylor begins, knowing you probably wouldn't speak, but she still sung anyway.*

"The buttons of my coat were tangled in my hair..."
