The Nurse

I decided to stop fighting mankind. When I realized they were fighting against their own healths. Internally and externally at war with themselves. And I came to terms, with a heart I only imagined I ever had… That I wasn’t angry, I wasn’t bewildered, I wasn’t even sad. Bud sad to see, the essence that was beating on the inside. A free thinking, feeling, God forgive, a human being. A bleeding ulcer that wouldn’t subside. I decided not to tend to a wound, That is not yet ready to be dressed. It is only for the soul of the living, That in time, those demons are addressed. So I found myself in a peculiar light, One I would never have conceived of, but none the less. I found myself a child again, Without judgment, without peril, With a heart incredibly and immensely open. I confess.
