by IForHer Team
February 4, 2021

On the occasion of World Cancer Day, Writer-filmmaker Tahira Kashyap has penned a heartwarming poem for all the brave cancer patients and survivors. In her beautiful poem, she encourages cancer patients to embrace their scars like a badge of honor.

From time to time, Tahira has shared her breast cancer struggle and how her husband Ayushmann Khurrana stood like a rock with her. Tahira, mother of two, was diagnosed with Stage 1A Breast Cancer and since then she has been actively involved in spreading awareness about breast cancer.

“Some scars are deep, some within.

Some are seen, while some are hidden.

The thing about scars is, it reminds you of the past,

The moments of suffering that you thought would forever last.

But there are more these goddamn scars,

They’re secrets far away, just like stars.

It’s the truth which you don’t see with your naked eye.

Oblivious to the functioning of the world, a blatant lie.

But hear me, there’s more to the scar,

It also talks about the fight, the resilience, and your invincible power.

My love and respect to those who fought,

The treacherous battlefield that some crossed, while some got lost.

But the thing with health karma is that everyone is a winner,

For it’s the fight that counts, whether you’re an expert or a beginner.

The fight with cancer is not just physical but also mental,

Some battles are more tough to conquer especially if they’re internal.

But hear me again, we all have that fighter which has the universe’s might.

The indomitable spirit that can’t be crushed by any fright.

Hide not your scars, my love, show them, flaunt them, just like your bright smile, soothing to other eyes.

And when you do that time and again giving people nowhere to run and hide,

They will have to fall in love with your badge of honor, your prize.

So hear me one last time, fall in love with yourself, all with dusks, scars, and cry,

That’s what makes you you.

Faulty, imperfect, blemished, but all true.

So let me hear you say on this day, this year 2021, loud and shrill,

Commit yourself to spreading awareness about early breast cancer detection,

Say it, say it with me this year’s theme- I AM AND I WILL.”

At IFORHER, we are in awe of Tahira and every cancer patient who is battling this deadly disease with courage. We wish them loads of strength and hope they will emerge as a true warrior.
