Healing

Worry met disappointment,
And introduced me to patience.
The wait was long but
I checked my heart,
It was still beating.

I woke up,
Looked outside,
Everything looked the same
But I can change that.

Today I woke up on the right
Side instead of the left.
Showered with cold water
Instead of hot.
Did I like it?
No
Would I do it again?
Yes

Check my heart,
that’s still beating. 
—But did you learn anything? 
I prefer the right to my left side
Oh—and 
The world keeps going
And so shall I.
