Finding Peace

In the time of flower power, maryjane’s smoky eyes led me in a trance, to an acid world, colored in a purple haze, and so psychedelic feet danced across my mind’s floor. Lost and confused about it all when a call to arms held me captive in the war that wasn’t and a cause now forgotten. Shelled into fright and not sure of a one God, on two I did lean. When a government issue no more, all was safe and sound I thought, which god did hear? One fought to keep me in the dark of a black heart with questions and twisted answers about the whys and whats of life. So I struggled to see the light and make sense of it all through bloodshot eyes of a messed up life. But the true One heard my plea and mercifully drew near when a face glowing with peace opened my heart to truth's bright light to rescue me from dark despair.
