Alchemy of peace

Like an alchemist

I created my own peace

From pain

and nobody is going to steal it from me

I fought for this

being whole

All alone

I'm not a map for lost men

To find themselves

I'm not a sip of whisky

a Friday night takeaway

I am thirst-quenching

homemade lemonade

and Sunday morning breakfasts

Know that you cannot drive by

and take my peace

Bring your own

Or keep driving

Because I am my own home

Whole, not half

Found, not lost.
