Just let me heal

Everything doesn’t need a label to be healed 

Just let me scream into the abyss

Let me feel the pain

Then allow me to release it

In ways that are productive 

And healthy 

For me internally and externally 

Let me ride the waves of emotion

Let me feel the feels 

Allow me to just heal

It doesn’t have to be bipolar

Depression or addiction

It doesn’t need an axis 

Or even a prescription

Just let me be and feel 

And live and see

The pain is constant

All I want is to be free

It doesn’t always need a label

For healing to occur

Just let me ride the waves and feel

The sun soak into my skin

Let the wind blow through my Afro puffs

The sand seep between my toes

Let nature mute the voices

Allow me to heal inside my heart 

Where the pain lives

Allow my brain to slow down where the train tracks run in multiple directions 

Let me live and love and learn 

How to grow roots

Like the trees planted 

Where it’s safe to thrive 

Internally and externally

Just let me be

Let me heal without a label

Just let me heal
