Peace Serene...



I went inside a forest of hope,
I saw all of my fears,
rivers flowing next to me,
 filled with yesterdays tears.

From moments found alone,
 on the ground crying out to our Lord,
please my God guide me through this worldly discord.

Such is the unbalance that none can see,
when in the mind fighting to be free.

Each one of us has a place,
its there,
 that it doesnt matter your race.

For Jesus came for everyone,
now relax,
 enjoy & let His love be fun.

The same are your roots;
that of a tree,
buried in the dirt for none to see.

A hidden stream,
 underground, filling a well,
where many drink from,
hearing you yell.

How much longer shall my future live in the past,
how much longer will this pain last?

Within our mind we take ourselves there,
to a place where we think others dont care.

A battle within thought,
because we were worldly taught.

Seek the unseen,
find peace serene...
