Peace
Burdened by the past
accumulated by worry.
I could not see victory.
I clearly see what frustrated,
weighed heavily,
should be let go of, unnecessary
load, I insisted to carry
least I forget, I dishonor victims.
All who suffered, failed myself.
Yet, I need to be content.
Not broken from sorrow
things I can't repair, compensate for.
But, I long to hear a single person
acknowledgment or verbalize understanding
For all I experienced.
Peace, I regard as continued neglect,
indifference, none caring
complacency,indifference
don't give a damn-ness.
A lot of what I am used to, was behind
awaits, but then will be called peace.
