PoetryA Requiem
Written By Zachary Phillips
 

calm
within the eye
of the storm

joy
vicariously
obtained

warmth
besides
growing fire

clarity
from duty 
beyond self

peace
of a riptide’s
pull

focus
alongside
fear

awe
at primal
efficiency

pleasure
in
pain

release
through acceptance
of death

This poem is from the book A Requiem For What Could Have Been: Poetry For The Broken
