Compassionate Artemis, Goddess of healing and love,
We appeal to you, to hear our plea.
Strangers brought together, a family formed.
So comes the time for healing,
And through this we are reborn.
Let us look at ourselves through the eyes of each other,
For through those eyes we behold unconditional love and acceptance.
Empower us to clean out the dark corners, permitting light in.
Lessons learned and knowledge gained,
Now it is time to release the pain.
Through Your grace, and steadfast love,
We find the strength to free ourselves.
Tears we shed, will wash away our disquiet,
Flowing ever gently to the sea, taking away our strife.
Never again to believe the worst,
Instead believing in ourselves and our power.
Grant us now the ability to heal and wrap us safely in Your arms,
As we mourn what was and what could have been.
Healthy and strong will we be at the end,
Hold our hands, we are about to mend.
We will keep each others secrets and give no judgement.
We ask for Your blessings and Your aid.
Keep us strong on our course and on our path.
Until the time of healing has come to pass.
