At Peace

It has been hard to get this far.

I could show you bumps and bruises,

Scars incurred along the way, but

You don’t really want to see.

 

There were tears, yes, quite a few,

Always with a sense of loss.

The trails they left were lessons learned.

Guess that’s how it’s meant to be.

 

Objects may appear to be much

Smaller held in retrospect.

But when the walls were crashing down

There was no time to think,

 

Only to react before

The whore of Armageddon

Pillaged hope, left me bare

Without a drop to drink.

 

Only now in silent witness

Do I know release,

Letting up and letting go to

Find myself at peace.
