The Peace You Seek


Is it doubt you talk about
every time you speak
is it of truth or happiness
the peace that you seek

Watch what you shout about
doubt can fail with one word
or the next, it may be misconstrued
by another one's view

Not everyone has doubt
or lives under a clout
Disperse the anger, let it disappear
true love can chase away an unfounded fear

Have courage, stand up, and say
whatever it is that's in your way
Doubt is not clear, for it fogs the mind
it may not be of a rhythm or rhyme

Is it doubt you talk about
every time you speak
Is it of truth or happiness
the peace that you seek

Great Write Mona

Great write, dear Mona! Reminds me of a quote; "Faith can move mountains, doubt can creat them." Sincerely, Wafi "Culture, location and beliefs; All vanish with love!" ~Afzal Shauq~
