i could be a leaf soaking in a puddle   i could be a tree torn out of its soil   i could be a treat melting in one’s cuddle   or i could be a bond struggling but loyal      i don’t care if storm or breeze   i don’t care if dry or freeze   i don’t know if loaf or ease   ‘cause i know nothing but this: i found my peace      stronger than wind, tougher   deeper i breathe   better than wait, suffer   - eliminate seethe   why would i ache, what for   anguish i’ll cease   i will declare comfort, reveal bliss      rather be a flag with no flutter   rather be a book with no shelf   rather be a stream with no water   but rather be a thunder myself      i don’t care if storm or breeze   i don’t care miles or degrees   i don’t know if trick or tease   cause i know nothing but this: i found my peace      stronger than wind, tougher   deeper i breathe   better than wait, suffer   - eliminate seethe   why would i ache, what for   anguish i’ll cease   i will declare comfort, reveal bliss
