poem[I hate the smell of hospitals]

I hate the smell of hospitals
The way it travels up my nose
Making me almost retch
Forcing me to curl my toes

As I swallow down hard
Trying to control the urge
Anything to rid the feeling
That makes me want to purge

I hate the smell of hospitals
It always sticks onto my clothes
As if it was not bad enough that
It lingers up inside my nose

But most of all I hate the smell of hospitals
Because it makes me think of you
I hate the smell of hospitals
And all you had to imbue
