Volunteer My Heart

I've met doctors who have played the know it all role, Who thought they knew all there was to know, To listen to their hearts seemed a waste of their time, Diagnosing a persons heart without even really hearing their cries, This behavior disturbed me to no end, Not wanting to share because of this attitude, can you really blame them, They've already been labeled so why even try, To take the time to look into their eyes, To get to know them and be their friend, Was not a part of their job description, I would NEVER want that prestigious degree, Thanks,,but NO THANKS, I'll wash dishes gratefully, All the money in the world can't buy, The love that I saw in their eyes, When I look back to when I wanted to go back to college, To get paid for my passion, I don't think I would want it!
