It is Peace
Katie Cruce
17 years old, Nebraska
It can come when you least expect it
The world can be in turmoil
But somehow you have found it
It can be simple
It can come at a price
It can take you away from reality
It is lazing around in your backyard
It is hearing your favorite song on the radio
It is a sense of belonging
It is doing something you love
It is finding new hope
It is finally coming home after a long day
It is the calm after the storm
It is living happily with your true love
It is discovering your purpose
You have found it
It is peace
