DREAMING OF PEACE

Slowly she turns

Out of the corner of her eye

It's been a long time coming

She breathes deeply

Sighing as she silently cries

Numbness fills her body

Once she dreamed of peace

like a long train coming around

It was there within reach

Faded hope

Like blue jeans

Gather yourself up

And move to the light again
