Heal

For all the sickness that ails you and the body that often fails you-heal
For the pain that stabs you and the stress that grabs you-heal
For things you cannot change and the goals so out of range-heal
For the history of your oppression and your uncontrollable obsession-heal
For the pressures on your brain that try to drive you insane-heal
For the images that you see reflecting a scolding family tree-heal
For self-doubts that make you implode and for carrying such a heavy load-heal
For what is fantasy in your mind and for what is painfully real-heal, heal, heal
