Peace
In the twisting winds of time and change
A Mighty river of Peace may run through
You soul
Though we travel through dust and storms
There is a place deep within
That shores up the Soul
And carries the vessel through the
Rocky terrain
Drop down in
Look for place underneath
It is there
In all of us
No matter
It is always there below the life story
The challenges the struggle
If you look you will see that no matter your journey
In life
You can rest, breath, laugh and love
From this deep place within
You.
However if you do not look for it,
It will surely not arrive.
We must dig, traverse the steps,
Want it more than anything else in the World.
More than Anger, more than hurt, more than grief, more than
Betrayal, more than disappointment, more than Pride.
Do you wish Peace, than you shall have it.
I know.
