In the shadows of a dream
A storm rages
The fire turns charred wood into ashes
Unleash your heart
And develop into something productive
You may have hurt others
Others may have hurt you
But the only thing you are truly hurting
Is your deepest desire for love and understanding
We keep a peace within our hearts
It is not prayers that saves us
It is our own minds to not being judgemental
We can create excuse make plans to why we're not seeing clearly
It's as plain as the sands in the desert
You wanted life
So you took it by open games
And you played yourself
You still lost
And endless cost at the chosen steps of redemption and peace
One cannot find peace without first knowing the cost of war
And how sacrifice of one's own burdens is developing into some other ways
Some ways of making you better brighter and full of joy

Nice poem .
