As a writer…

We are first healers

As a writer we need to tell
What was never listened to,
When relatives are annoyed
With your authenticity.

We were here first to heal them,
But they don’t want to be healed,
So we speak to everyone else
So that our words are recognized
And maybe will touch them back.

An answer to the beautiful poem by Diana C.
