POEM # 4

"Worth Waiting For"
by Junels Reg

Years ago, back when I was little,

I do nothing but to mingle

Thought that life is simple

And my house is my only temple

My parents taught me of everything

To have a life which is worth living

From them I learned dancing and singing

Most especially, the essence of dreaming

I said, “Mom & Dad, I wanted to be a doctor”

They answered, “We are your supporter”

Support and love of them is greater

And in everything, God became the center

16 Years had passed, white uniform is worn

During my capping day, to Him I sworn

The passion is with me from the day I was born

Those in need, won’t be rejected and scorned

Planned to be a nurse to gain knowledge

Failures, pain, and strength were managed

4 year course and finished with courage

And yes, I’m ready to continue medicine in college

I took up medicine whole-heartedly

Being a doctor is a dream I wanted to be

Not just to gain titles, fame, and money

But also to serve and help the many

During the process of my life, I met this stranger

I thought someone will put my heart again in danger

But rather made my entire monotonous life better

And then he told everyone, “I’m going to marry her” 

Now, I’m holding my pen and stethoscope

I can still feel the courage and undying hope

 I can still feel the times that I wasn’t able to cope

Yet still fighting and holding on my life’s rope

I even tried ending up everything

I really don’t know where I will be going

I have been failing and ending up crying

And feels like I’m the only one fighting

I just don’t know how did I get here?

From a girl who’s been covered with fear

Strength is counted by every single tear

And thought success will never be near

 Years later I’m doctor and has my own happy family

And fortunately be already living in other country

I already have the life that I once for see

Mom and dad, thanks for being supportive to me

Thanks for those mistakes that made better

For  family & friends who became my supporter

For my professors who became my educator

Most especially for God who became my mover

Here I am now sitting on our huge comfy chair

While he’s hugging me with tender, loving, care

Talking about all the memories we shared

And how our undying love is still on flare

Now I can certainly say that I am ready to fly

Going to the peaceful paradise beyond the sky

After all the things that worth abided by

 I can now peacefully rest and say good bye

I just made this poem for my "SELF-AWARENESS" requirement in Psychiatric Nursing. This is how I see my life for the next few years until the end of time. 




Sincerely,
