                            Peaceful Existence

 

Product of an environment that was derived on greed and malice, wandering about that Peaceful Existence.

 

As I stand and look into the mirror, I see the shell of a man that has taken the less traveled road searching for that Peaceful Existence.

 

Momentarily seeing footage as I digress, looking on the birth of my children, there seeing glimpses of peacefulness.  Either I or society spoiled that picture of total oneness.

 

Other moments of sharing my love with special ones, only to have it run its course.  Searching for that Peaceful Existence, asking myself why I can’t have that existence.

 

Should I dare have that rose colored glass exterior or the Don Quixote mindset searching for that Peaceful Existence?

 

Laying here now as the dirt settled and my soul starting its ascension, I realize there is a true Peaceful Existence.

Wow! What a wonderful unque write full of imagery, rhythm and strength. You demonstrate how proud you are on having a "peaceful existence", which makes you stronger. Keep up the great work! Thank you so much for sharing such an awesome write!

Sometimes we have to walk through an illusion of brightness to finally see the shadows. Then we finally discover that idyllic stream right in front of us.
