Listen Nurse!!


I was hungry and could not feed myself
You let my food tray out of reach
On my beside table
Then you discussed my nutritional meal
during a Nursing conference

I was thirsty and helpless,
but you forgot to ask the attendant to refill my water pitcher
You later charted that i already taken my fluids

I was lonely and afraid,but you let me alone
Because i was so cooperative
and
Never asked for anything

I was a nursing problem and you discussed the theoretical basis of my illness
and
you do not even see me

I was thinking to be dying and thinking i could not hear,
You said you hoped i would not die before it was time to finish your day...
because..you had an appointment at the beauty parlour before your evening date..

You seem so well educated,well spoken and
so very neat in your spotless unwrinkled uniform
But when I speak
You seem to listen but do not hear me..

help me,care about when happens to me
I am so tired,so lonely and so very afraid
talk to me..
reach out of me...
Take my hand
let what happens to me matter to you...

please...Nurse..Listen to me....
