Trigger Warning: Implications of Self-Harm A poem i made for a dear friend of mine. # She Is A Nurse, In Life. -- She is my friend. She is a light to me. She is so bright, that to her, she sees nothing. And I am blinded, by her potential. She is sweet. She is broken. She is capable. She is hopeless. She has potential. But lacks inner focus. She has a future. But she sees no road. She is a nurse. She is certified. She is a nurse. She wants to save lives. She is a nurse. But does not want to save herself. She is a nurse. A nurse in life. A nurse in life and a light. She is a nurse. Why can't she see that she is right? She is my friend. She is a light to me. She has scars. But that does not mean you can't be free. ||Your harm.|| ||Your hurt.|| ||Your sharp.|| ||Your edge.|| ||Your self-belief in destructive destiny.|| ||It's not the end.|| ||Why can't you see?|| ||You are a nurse.|| ||A nurse in life.|| ||You want to save lives, but not yourself?|| It makes me angry. It makes me passionate. It makes me scared. It makes me determined. You are a nurse. You are a nurse, a nurse in life. ||Put down the knife.|| ||Put it down and listen to me.|| ||Please.|| A world without you, is a worse one. She is a nurse. A nurse in life. She is my friend. She is a light to me. Why can't she see it? Why does she refuse to? I will never know. I can only pray. Thank you, Z.
