He may not understand <br />why I've taken such a turn. <br />Was my life for nothing <br />or is there something I could learn? <br /> <br />I'd like to help their healing <br />and ease their troubled mind. <br />I want to be the comfort <br />that they never yet could find. <br /> <br />It makes it all seem worth it <br />to know I'll put it all to use <br />the years of so much suffering <br />through lonely, cold abuse. <br /> <br />He asked me what I'm looking for <br />in those books upon my shelf. <br />I heard Him whisper softly... <br />''Physician, heal thyself''<br /><br />Mary Nagy<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/physician-heal-thyself/
