Enlightenment

Enlightenment
The acceptance
Of what is
What you can
And cannot
Change
Or effect

For me
It lies
Somewhere
Between
Sadness
And serenity
Sadness
And the realization
That your past
Can never be changed
No matter how much
It may hurt
And serenity
In knowing
The future
Is all mine
To build
What we need
To realize
Is that
No matter
How hard
Our past was
It teaches us
Important things
Things we need
To use to
Make the
Future better
For ourselves
And those
Around us
When we realize that
Then we will
Have found
Personal peace
