Peace

You illuminate the dark
The dark returns
Where have you gone?
The moment I stop looking
There I find you
You are alone
You are kind
You are slow
Like fresh air on mountain side

You lighten the load
The load returns
Where have you gone?
The moment I surrender
There I find you
You are space
You are light
You are love
Like solitude to kiss a heavy heart
​
You still the frantic
The busy returns
Where have you gone?
The moment I rest
There I find you
You are pause
You are wisdom
You are compassion
Like refreshment for the drought

You quite the fear
The doubt returns
Where have you gone?
The moment I believe
There I find you
You are gentle
You are beauty
You are mine
Like light guiding me home
