Peace-seeker

I seek peace in my unrest 
I need rest in his absence 
Because this peace, he's hard to find 
Without him, nothing makes sense 

I'm done caring, but I can't not care 
All this indifference feels unfair 
Not on me, but those around me 
I can't ever mean an 'I don't care' 

I don't understand the things around me 
I don't comprehend these happenings 
But I'm learning to let them happen 
Because I don't control my surroundings 

I've had peace within arm's reach 
He was always a call away 
Until I lost sight of him 
Until I went astray 

I'm learning to appreciate 
Things I've had, things I have 
To not dare take for granted
The food, the clothes, the family, the love 

It's all easier said than done 
It's much simpler spoken out 
It's much harder than it seems 
It's the reason I seek peace.
