My nurse

She took good care of me

Be Paid to put things on the shelf
A good nurse has a devotion
That reaches beyond their self

And I looked that demon in the eye
He though there was a chance
He could make me die
When I felt really sick
Cheryl kept me safe
It is a special trick
To deny Death it’s fate
