Peaceful Existence
Like waves in the ocean,
Rollercoastering on thorns of life,
Leaving a trail of blood,
Finding peaceful existence through strife…Living the past as present,
Seeing hate through shrouded eyes,
Numbing all of reality,
Peaceful existence is no surprise…Silence speaking volumes,
Breaking bones and souls,
A peaceful existence–
A void to make one whole…Emptiness lingers on
Drowning out sorrow and light,
Hopeless inevitability–
A peaceful existence celebrating plight…Salvation starves for a feast,
Roasted memories and rotten hate,
Pleasantries of pain,
A peaceful existence of indigestible dates…© 2004 All Rights Reserved Ty J. Lim
