Peace

Sitting at the window,

Staring at the sea,

All I want is quiet,

and all I hear is me...

 

If,for just a moment,

My wish should come true,

I'd thank the heavens ever more,

And send unto it its dues...

 

I only wish for quiet,

I only wish for peaxe,

I long to be away,

And become one with the sea...

 

As I sit here on this mantle,

I wish to be at ease,

But until my soul has settled,

Until my body rests,

I shall forever deal with,

This loud and painful distress...
