Some career poems

POETRY. ... The cathartic poem is an attempt at self-healing through self-empathy. The poem and the person endeavor to make sense of chaotic thinking, restoring a feeling of balance and of wholeness in oneself through words

My Career

Ballet dancer,Nurse,Author
Poet, Doctor, Ballet dancer
Doctor
And now I’m stuck.
 
Stuck firm before I’ve even started
I just want to find somewhere to fit in,
Somewhere where I’m valued
Just for being who I am.
Somewhere I’m not made to feel
Second rate; a problem to be solved.
I just want a job where I can be me,
Be me, and be happy
Just like I always try to be,
Without people making
A simple thing like that
An almighty effort.
I hope I find it soon
 
Dr Jemma Saville

My Career

Playing doctors and nurses at the age of 4
A doctor he'll be - his parents are sure 
But later in life is when he will know 
What he should do and where he should go

What should I do and where should I go 
At the age of 16 who would know? 
But we choose a degree! 
And then we grow up at the age of 33

Trust in your heart - or is it your head 
That one should follow instead 
I pray for the lotto 
Or maybe I will just get blotto

Time to think clearly as
Mature married man 
Make some goals
And follow a plan
