Too Much Peace
Write a poem inspired by or containing these words. Is there such a thing as too much peace?
never enough
is there such thing as too much peace ?
i couldnât imagine
too much solace
too much calm
i truly couldnât fathom
an opportunity to be relieved of all that plagues me
no longer buried by burdens
if i sit an imagine what that means to me what could possibly bring me too much peace?
could i be so relaxed and unbothered that it becomes some sort of uncomfortable sensation.
one where i now crave anything but the constant regulation of my nervous system.
the closest iâve had to too much peace was when the arguing and incessant tension was gone and a normal day was the highest reward
a day where the house didnât shake or my face and pillow werenât constantly stained with tears
now i sometimes sit in silence a peaceful bliss i had long desired
hours to just sit with no barked orders or nasty remarks
and even in this peace i find discomfort, i now long for a different kind of peace
something similar but evolved
where i am encapsulated by loving and supporting friends and family
thriving in my relationship and in my self
a peace where i donât worry how everyone is doing and instead allow myself to worry and concern myself with me
i couldnât imagine too much of it i couldnât imagine ever getting tired or uncomfortable or thinking itâs too much
i think if there was that much peace iâd never get enough
