Finding Peace

Sometimes, finding peace is like finding needle in a stack of hay
For troubles come constantly like volley of punches 
Teaching yourself to pray and be gay 
Keeps you away from scratches 

Sometimes, troubles come even if you dodge 
For harsh wind is everywhere 
When people who don't know you judge 
Try to act like you don' t care 

For no matter how chaotic the world is 
Inner peace is important 
Sometimes, mere silence is a bliss 
Try to keep away from rant
