Healing doesn't always present
as cuts or scrapes or bruises
Sometimes healing means choosing
to take a leap of faith and making
a conscious choice to forsake my pain
And as I immerse myself in acts of
service that make my aching heart
beat with a speed akin to joy
I find myself rejoicing that the
voice of hope rose
to defeat the call of pain
Thus my victory will lie not in seeing
these weeping wounds close
but in knowing that as long my scars
share the weight of my pen
I will always have a way
to find my joy again...
