eternal peace
a simple request from life

a prayer for eternal peace
welcome, soothing
weary of the unending fight for tranquility
so desired
gentle summer rain
cleansing, renewing
I imagine my silent steps
floating towards a light I have never seen
psalmodic drums beat calmly in the distance
perfect fifths accompany my growing exhaustion
their hypnotic drone eases my fears
leading me forward, towards
         a life I poorly imagine
far away a lone songbird chants quietly rejoicing in life
at last I hear your gentle voice
         long forgotten yet instantly remembered
reminding me of a discordant past
promising a future in harmonious serenity




eternal peace
