Peace Be Still

Peace
Of mind,
I need some time
To get peace of mind,
To get a piece of mine.
Can't figure out if peace is mine.
Wondering what I did wrong,
Why I'm alone this time.
Grateful that God holds all time,
And that peace is mine.
Sometimes my mind drifts back in time:
Two years ago,
Two weeks ago,
And I'm locked back in that mind-
set in thinking back to just that one inkling in time,
Then I have no peace
My mind's not mine.
Must get back this peace.
Sigh,
Have you ever really thought about that phrase:
Peace of mind?
Two important words: peace and mind.
OR,
Piece and mine.
I'd like both on my plate,
I'd make it taste like strawberry shortcake,
Yup I'd have my piece,
And I'd eat it too.
Cause peace, when you find it,
Sure tastes good, it's true.
Thought I had my piece,
Finally thought it was my divine time,
Set apart, to have as mine.
God had other plans,
So really that piece wasn't mine...
Guess you think I don't have peace of mind.
But I'll chase my peace FIRST before my piece
Because peace of mind IS a piece of mine.
