a separate peace
by john knowles
has no point.
i never liked it.
(might also include
it was required reading.)
but i like the separate peaces
just not the separate pieces.
im suffering from depression
from nothing.
i have nothing to be sad for.
but then,
i dont have anything
to rejoice for, either,
but for those small moments
happiness touches me
when i see signs of love
any signs of love and joy and peace
or any of them, really.
then i am happy
for whoever it is that has that.
perhaps im a bit envious too.
i have that kind of love,
just not in that sense,
unfortunately.
but i will wait.
i will wait for the day
when my peace,
my joy,
my love will come.
then i will be able to taste
God beside me,
the fringes of His glory.
and i will be glad.
i will be the most
peaceful, joyous, and loved/loving
woman on Earth.
i will never stop singing praises to God
the God of my joy, my love
my peace
