God,
Grant me peace
Serenity
A desire
To look inward
Not want
What the world
Tries to sell
Don’t react
Live in harmony
With self
And find
That what
I want
Isn’t anything
That I can hold
Yet holds me
Let me not
Become an explosion
Upon detonation
But a calm presence
In the storm
Beautifully expressed! May you find the peace and serenity you seek within yourself.
