Poem: Healing, Who to Trust?

 

Healing, Who to Trust?

By Abby Weyr

28 October 2023

So many options.

Overwhelmed.

Paralyzed decision making.

No one to sit and talk with

To figure which is best.

Which to prioritize?

Physical

Emotional

Mental

All are a part of me.

How to balance the connection?

Who to trust?

Therapist

Chiropractor

Massage

Regular western medicine

Traditional Chinese medicine

Brain-Neurological

Naturopath

Holistic

Spiritual

Take this pill for this condition.

Do this for that condition.

All say they have the answer.

They all cost money.

Do I have enough?

Who to trust?

Who treat all of me?

They say answers inside of me,

But too little energy to look anymore.

Want a hand to hold.

Don’t want to walk this healing path all alone.

Who to trust as a guide?

So tired of no energy

Don’t know how to fix it.

Don’t know what to fix.

Thyroid or gut or back or emotional trauma

Physical or mental or emotional or spiritual

Have so much that needs to be done

And no help to do it

Just someone to be there and keep me going

Keep me on track

Both physically and in healing.

Everyone busy with own issues and family.

Not connected enough to anyone.
