Walking through the ancient forest with just my aching thoughts
I came across a lady who listened to all I’d brought
I told her of my troubled times and how I’d like to change
She said listen to me my friend for your thoughts are not so strange
She took me by the hand, which brought comfort to my soul
I unburdened all my anxieties which had recently took their toll
She said now that you have told me of all that feels so sore
You should not feel so troubled as you carry them no more
For when you share a problem with a listening friendly ear
The problem is no longer whole as it is halved you see my dear
I drew strength from her wisdom, as I knew her words made sense
Life was no longer troublesome or such a big wrench
This experience which I received was an awakening that I needed
Others tried before with me with advice that went unheeded
This lady had a special gift that others never had
I wondered how she connected with those thoughts that were oh so bad
So I asked her how she comprehended such tangled thoughts I gave
She said I am a natural healer and I care for those I save
