POEM STARTER

You are a doctor who has to deliver some news to a patient - good or bad. Write a poem about your feelings on the matter before it happens.

Bad News

My favorite patient is dying, But how do I tell her that? How do I tell her she has six months? Why do I have to be the bearer of bad news? I know I’ve done this a thousand times, But I can’t bring myself to do it right now. “Can I take a minute?” I ask my supervisor He sees my troubled expression on my face He puts a hand on my shoulder, but I shrug. Before he can answer, I go into the restroom As soon as I hit the door, the tears fall And I start crying uncontrollably.
