The Divide

I was wrong to think peace in love
was possible.
Peace and love are separations,
divides between each other that are
not one in the same.
Love fills you up, but peace
is the divide that separates one person
from another.
That comfort,
that comes from not being close.
In order to be happy we must pick one.
Love or peace.
There is no such thing as both.
The divide is too great,
and life was not created to provide both.
