Peace of Mind (Pt. 1)


Peace of mind is

Lying sandwiched between my parents.

I am half a man with an ego bigger than he is,

And half a woman with a temper shorter than she'd like it to be considered.

I am half afraid, half fearless.

I am half love, half understanding.

And though they are the divide in me,

Here I am whole.
