Let There Be Peace

Words escape me, 

in a world so dark –  

so filled with hate.  

 

Differences exist, 

and this small world, 

should be big enough, 

for all of it.  

 

Let all the differences exist, 

between you and me, 

and me and you.  

 

Let life breathe, 

a breath full of air, 

and allow the heart, 

to beat one full beat, 

every time.  

 

Unhappiness, 

lives in all of us, 

even in me.  

but only, 

in the acceptance, 

of each life, 

can we find, 

our peace.  

 

A peace, 

this world, 

so desperately, 

needs.  

 

Let there be peace!

Unexpected

If I would expect it,

it would not be unexpected,

it would not be a gift,

and it would not require faith.

Unseen,

is what only the heart can see,

when it feels,

beyond the borders of reality.

Nervous is the unexpected,

trembling in her hands,

but in the arms of love,

it finds peace,

in this new,

and unexpected reality.
