How We Heal
How we heal is something
That we cannot quite control.
We each have different paths to take
To help to make us whole.
Our bodies or our minds may hurt
But what a huge mistake
To think that our experience
Will match another’s ache.
And therefore our recovery
Will strictly be our own.
The way our healing happens
Will be ours and ours alone.
It’s tempting to compare ourselves
To some and come up short,
But we all can heal as long as we
Have courage and support.
