peace of mind

I'm looking for my peace of mind
have you seen it?
I swear it was just here a minute ago
I know I haven't been as good an owner that I should be
but, believe me,
my intentions are good

but somehow my peace of mind
has faded away
gone on vacation
leaving me to mourn
the serenity I once had,
if only for a moment

I am confident that it has not gone away
it is only in hiding
waiting for that one moment
when it is needed most

and when that moment comes
I will unclench my fists
I will breathe deeply
and thank God
that my peace of mind
never really left
