Time for Healing

Take refuge in a novel

Solace in a poem

Relief in a song

Distraction in all three

Tire of them in a moment, or a year

Leave time for healing

Learn something new

But when you wake up, and you will wake up

Listen for your call

Pick up your roots, Move

Leave your books, your tools of distraction

For another* tired soul

Find your own song

Whether you invent it or discover** it

Do what feels right

Face facts, and act
