If I were to have any choice,
ere the end beckons,
I'd opt for you as my nurse
and
as you come closer
and
clasp my hands,
the warmth shall flow between you and me
then surely death which eludes
will surely pass by.
even though with kith and kin of my own,
With you I shan't feel alone
the current seeps through my spine
and I erect as before .

Loneliness is a curse
but for those who live lives obscure,
I talk to even pets and feel lonely no more...
I smile and humor with strangers,
treat them with respect,
how so ever different may be our levels
I have no regret…
they feel me as one

of their very own

Despite my affirmed resolutions
should I cease to be?
Friend, to have had my last sojourn with you
shall for memories abide with me,
If as you all insist
we have a soul,
as nurse in the next universe
you shall continue to guide me.
