When The Peace Kicks In

When the peace kicks in,
so does your beating heart

but until that moment,
the solace of a battling soul
remains all I choose to know.

Yet the choice is not a want,
rather a need,
an addiction,
with a home.

Someone give me the tinder,
someone give me a match,
and i’ll set it ablaze.

I’ll watch the red glow brighter
and brighter, the flames
fighting each other.
A mirror of my mind,
a pattern of my thoughts.

Someone

Give me the tinder,
give me a match.
