My Constant Craving is Peace

Author's Note: The following is the fifth poem in my self-challenge to write a poem a day. (Though last night's was a cheating piece of rubbish).

Click here for the first poem in this challenge. Thank you for reading and wish me luck to keep the pace ❤

❤

All I want is peace - 

No more.

No less.

_

No longer do I crave

A passion enduring.

No longer do I care

If he loves me most.

_

All I want is peace - 

A safe home.

A quiet space.

_

The time has come and past

When charm will hit its mark.

The moment has arrived

For truth to claim its throne.

_

All I want is peace - 

For pain to fade.

For fear to cease.

_

You are no longer

My constant craving.

No longer do I believe

In forevermore.

_

But all I want is peace - 

Whether we stay.

Or whether we cease.
