Nursing a tender heart

Nursing a tender heart

A Poem by P.J. Lowry


A needle goes into my arm, I feel a small pinch
the pain is nothing as I am clearly drugged,
when staring into her eyes, I’m unable to flinch
wondering how she feels about a man this rugged.

I am barely able to speak, I feel so lost
her skin is so fair, as white as a dove
I want to take her now no matter the cost
imagining a world where we are in love.

She is a gentle soul, one with a very unique glow
and her hands feel so soft when touching mine.
Each time I long to touch her, caress her brow
we remain professional, I never cross that line.

This lovely nurse barely notices when I’m around
but she stole my heart without making a sound.
