The Day You Left New York.




I often wonder, upon waking
in the early hours of the morning

had I truly fallen? Or
was I simply dreaming?

What stirs this unrest deep inside
my weary mind? for the moment

I drift off to sleep, I find
myself grasping and panicking,

yearning to wake up.
Why?

I want to find that rest,
that bit of peace I have so longed for.

I fear that the key to my inner serenity
was stolen away the day you left New York.

Where is the peace within my heart?

    I really liked the poem. The only thing that confused me was: "I fear that the key to my inner piece" Shouldn't it be: "I fear that the key to my inner peace" at first I wasn't sure since "piece" would make some sense in the context you used it. But then when I read your author notes you said "Where is the peace within my heart?" That made me think you meant "peace" in the other line. Either way, great job on the poem and sorry for such a long comment.
