Unseen Wounds

They always told me I would see ghosts, I never believed them... Now I do, I can describe the details on every one of my past patients' faces, and I know some of them did not make it. I have flashbacks from time to time and all I do is ask myself, "Did I do all I could?" "Am I what they needed in their time of need?" I don't suffer from PTSD, I suffer from compassion, I'm not a stone, I'm a man, one who cares for his fellow human being. I don't care who you voted for, what you worship, and or what your education level is, you breathe, your heart beats, just like mine. Recollection of memory is the bodies greatest defense when you don't remember what you're here to do. Learn from your past and build your future. Keep your mind open but your heart spread wider. Stay strong, and stay safe.
