Peace, be still, for I Am with you!

Sleep in the storms,

The thunder shouldn't scare you,

Worry not about the Warring wind.

Peace, be still, for I Am with you!

When you hear the trumpets of war,

Don't let your legs think for your brain,

The attacking army shouldn't scare you,

Peace, be still for I Am with you!!

Wash your denim jeans, even in the rain

Worry not about the sun,

I can bring it to you if you ask

Peace, be still for I Am with you!!!

When you hear the drummer boy play his drums to end the world,

And thunder sings lullabies to mourn the planet,

Do not fret at the threat,

Peace, be still for I Am with you!!!!

AGE

It scares me that my father is aging,
I’m not a millionaire yet,
Time tick tocks
swiping seconds away,

While I sit in my 20-year-old aging body
A first-time adult pretending to know what I’m actually doing,
While writing poetry, 21-year-old me would read
God, this suspense, would I be a millionaire at 21?

It scares me that my mother is aging,
I’m not a millionaire yet,
Time tick tocks
swiping seconds

How does a physicist end up with the heart of a poet?
But bills must be paid,
So I juggle, struggle, double the hustle, sometimes burgle
All because I want to play golf with my dad in a foreign man’s land.
