Simple Peace

With each day being the same and the outlook looking bleak She felt such self-blame that about it she could barely speak For it was always there, playing over and over again in her mind By feeling so bare, it was just simple peace she could not find She tried many different things but each of them would fail And the heartbreak that that brings with a psyche so frail She was seeing no way out, no way to possibly change When in the deepest of her dout she felt something strange A sudden calmness came over her body a simple peace in her mind Like some one had set her free breaking all those chains that bind And as she continued looking at the Cross tears coming to her eyes Completely at a loss in seeing the one thing she didn't realize By looking in all the wrong places she hit all those dead ends Which by His Mercies and Graces, Jesus had already made amends In realizing came this relief as that whole burden just lifted away Giving Jesus all het grief gave peace a chance to have a say Peace I leave with you; my peace I give to you. Not as the world gives do I give to you. Let not your hearts be troubled, neither let them be afraid.” John 14:27
