Peace

I feel at peace, although she’s far away
I wonder where this peaceful feeling’s from
I’m quiet, though there’s plenty I would say
If she were here; she told me she would come
This peace is like a song I like to hear
That calms me and reminds me of my youth
This peace is also like a subtle tear
Of warmth upon my skin, that feels like truth
With tears and songs I’ve found my thoughts are right
The peace I feel is this:  her gift to me
She doesn’t need to be within my sight
For me to feel her love, for peace to be.
The gifts I bought are simple, next to this
I’ll thank my lover with a simple kiss.
