Poem written by Geva Thole from Good Listening:

Redemption

I discovered my heart

only by tearing down what

once lived inside it.

By redefining medicine,

I found redemption following heartache—

repaired my conscience after its injury.

I realized faith is the only answer—

that wholeness is the path to healing.

I learned the journey is difficult,

but can be achieved with an open heart,

that an epiphany can be experienced

when I tend to my soul.
