I wrote this one when I came to realize that everything is from Hashem and everything He does is for the very best:
Get Well Soon
The sharp blade
Made its way
Toward my heart.
It cut
Punctured
Sliced.
My heart-
It was
Wounded
Aching
Hurting.
There was
Blood gushing.
I was
Scared
Frightened
Terrified.
Why
Oh, why
Is this
Happening?
Who
Had dared
To cut
My heart
Open?
I was
Mad
Upset
Furious.
Who
Has the heart
To wound
Mine?
I was
Confused
Bewildered
Frustrated.
The pain
Oh, the pain.
Will the bleeding
Ever stop?
Will the wounds
Ever heal?
Will the torn parts
Ever be reconnected?
I stared
At the knife
At my side.
My killer.
I examined
Carefully
That awful blade.
It was
That of
A surgeons’.
