Invisible Is Peace

The dark streets
Give me a home
Nobody around
Yet I am not alone

Science and nature
Are all around
I am on a mission to find
What can not be found

Searching for answers
Looking for relaxation
I don't know if I can find
A new adaptation

But if I can find
This answer unknown
My superior being
To which will be grown

I want to find peace
I look but can not find
Because what I look for
Causes me to go blind

There is no peace
Within our nation
Because everyone is corrupt
Been thrown to damnation

Sex, drugs, alcohol
Causes us to sin
And cast out our character
Deep within

Exactly. I wish we were less corrupt. I want to fight for a better nation. You want to fight with me? My biggest issue is idiocy; it's taking over. Great poem, by the way :]]]
