Today

I know what is right

Today

I have seen weakness

Today

I have seen strength

Today

I have seen courage

Today

I have seen tenderness.

Today

I have seen evil

Today

I have seen good

Today

I have seen you

Today

You have seen me

Today

you know who I am

Today

I know who you are

Today

Amid your warlike screeches

I am nestled in peace.

    Very nice. I’m glad you chose peace.

  5. This is so motivational! I love poetry. It’s really cool to see how people think through their poems. It’s also neat that a poem can mean a million different things too, depending on how it’s written. I love this one though! Peace always triumphs over anger because anger can get revenge but also destroys the person who gives the revenge in the end. Whereas peace can restore both people.
