A Nurse by Alon Calinao Dy

When all of your loved ones are gone
As you’re waiting for the doctor to come,
I’m the one that you’re getting angry of
‘Cause you see me coming around.
Instead of hating you or getting mad,
I try to show you how to understand.

Though I’m not a doctor to save someone’s life,
I ‘ll sit close beside you and I will listen
To your complaints, suffering, and pain
Somehow, I may take away all your fears.

Though I’m not a doctor who prescribes medicines,
I’ll serve you with tender, loving, and care.
For me, that’s something I should be proud.
Even in your slightest discomforts,
I am with you always
Making sure that you’re all right,
As you’re taking care with love and respect.

I am the one who believes in miracles
With my soft and gentle voice,
I bring you love and hope,
Render you my skillful care,
And show you my priceless smiles.
I am the one that comforts,
Stands and cares for you.

The one who dares to touch your hands
In your delicate moments
When you’re feeling lonely and hopeless.
I’m the one who lets you know
That I will stay close beside you
When there is no one to embrace you.

Yes, I am the one with white uniforms.
A nurse with a caring nature
Who has compassion and empathy to others.
An advocate nurse
That the ultimate goal on earth is
For the best of human race.
