Then do we find peace?
when the chips have fallen
where they may.
when we've done all there is to do
and said all there is
to say
then, is there peace?
when we have written and explained
and we finally have the courage just to say
hey
this is me.
hard earned, but good.
take me or leave me
and i'll be ok.
when we become brave
when we become strong.
then, is there peace?
are we at peace, then
if we hand in the result
and it is flawed?
can we learn to love the wounds
and love the scars
of battles lost
in noble wars?
Is this, then, peace?
Do we look back with a smile and a tear?
love the wrinkles for the laughter
that has put them here?
and find solace in
the circle full.
So, are we saved
when we wake up every morning unafraid?
Respect the person that this life has slowly made?
Tested
Tried
Survived.
