When we are in desperate want
of simple peace
practice peace
when we are lost
in search of hopeful station
practice peace
when we are scared
and cannot find small flickers
of light
practice peace
when we find no answers
to unspeakable ignorance
perpetuated by stupidity and greed
practice peace
in the wash of a thousand tears
and cries of anguish
practice peace
in light of senseless acts
of cowardice
and baseless inconceivable cruelty
still
we are here
to practice peace
and again to holding together
to finding our way
to steadying the ground beneath our feet
we are here
we are here
and
we
will
remain
here
to practice peace ♥
