Not A Professional
At My Calling
Waking up in a lot of pain
Body carrying yesterday's stress
Playing back everything in my head
Because I am not a professional worker
I got people lives in my hand
I put my heart into making people smile
I use my body to help people heal
To keep others safe
I use my mind to make wise decisions for others
Because I am not a professional
I am fatigued and burned out
But this is a career I prayed for
A career I got my degree and license in
Because I am not a professional
Planned to advance my knowledge and re-enter a higher-level program
To change my status to a higher unprofessional job
Hahaha!
That's insane!
Professional or unprofessional it is still my calling
Even though it is hard, it is still a place where I can fulfill my purpose
God give me strength
Make me qualified
For this profession
Because I am unprofessional by government standards
