We seek peace but forget

March 24
We seek peace but forget
To open ourselves to
Its possibility.
We fear the end of our petty conflicts,
Wondering how we will derive
Worth and status without
The little battles we define ourselves by.
But peace is surrender, and
From surrender we can build
Our true selves, free from
Fear and malificent desire.
Peace is bold, revolutionary.
It breaks down the walls,
Both between each other
And within ourselves.
It is a challenge, calling
Us to forgive and rebuild,
To accept and embrace,
To love and to believe.
We need peace,
If we're to stand any chance
Of making it past ourselves.

The Hidden Mercy

The wall creeps back in the night, She loved the wilderness. She lived the wilderness. The actions of the many have guided us. ...
