Stuudied so hard for a nursing career
Sometimes knowledge doesn\'t replace fear
The job of a 12 hour shift Nurse
At times feels more like a curse
Telling loved ones goodbye leaving home for the nite
The man in room 22 fragile and cold, needing a warm blanket and to hear him out
The lady in 13 has cancer and is slowly dying
Yet her hair is gone and she feels bad, she still grasps hope
Not ready to give in to her untimely fate
The call lights ring off the hook all nite long
The sick needing pain relief and care through the storm
Compassion and genuinity is all it takes
Lending a shoulder to cry and a listening ear
Encouragement following fast behind the fear
