Nurse

 

Please take this nausea from my throat;
I wish to inhale some more polluted air.
For this world seems to have it in abundance;
Oh how I wish you were here,
To hand me my oxygen mask,
But you exchanged me for a new kind of romance.


Breathing life into another man.
You said you would nurse me back to health.
What happened? Did you find somebody,
Who was more worthy of your help?


Or had you simply had enough of me?
If so then I’ll just lay down to sleep.
Give me no more morphine, to ease,
The pain, just leave me here to weep in peace.


Your caring words only hurt me now,
Why did you have to be such a cow?
I thought I was your favorite patient.
I thought you would have had more patience.


But there you go turning off the switch;
Go on then, do me in you bitch.
No longer be my favorite matron;
Just put an end to this helpless patient.
