No Peace when you try
To change an action that
can’t be changed
Like a storm at sea, all you
do is survive or perish

Sometimes, sorry doesn’t
fix the pain, sometimes
What is broken happened
long ago
The damage though not
your fault, can’t be mended
by words.

Have the strength to endure the
pain of knowing this situation
is not ok
And, the understanding to stand
strong, even if you stand alone

In the end, understand you can’t fix
what you didn’t break
So all you can do is keep moving forward
And, maintain.

An Original Poem by H.R. Beebe
