Solace

 

The heart knows what the heart wants
Every minute, it’s promises ceaselessly taunts
Peace permeating every cell
Calm nurturing every swell

The deepest character unchanged
My soul cannot be rearranged
The longing for solace remains

The desires of the heart denied
Every structure contrived
Solace unseen
Tension continually mounting
Endlessly bounding & hounding

I must remain believing
I must rise above
Grasp peace like a dove
And soar like an eagle
Readying for battle

Pain is my constant companion
In my ear, always naggin’
About the deficits in my life
Of the ripping, relentless strife

Even still, the thirst cannot be quelled
The desires deep inside, continually yelled
Truth and honor must be upheld

The desires of the heart denied
Every structure contrived
Solace unseen
Tension continually mounting
Endlessly bounding & hounding

I must remain believing
I must rise above
Grasp peace like a dove
And soar like an eagle
Readying for battle

Until Solace is Won
Solace will be Won
Solace & I Will Be One
