She didn’t find peace with crowds Or in mind-numbing activities Or sitting restfully by herself She found it wrapped in his arms
She'd tried so hard, so many times And it had all seemed futile She'd looked so far for comfort And it had eluded her again and again
And then he was suddenly there And she didn't know it at first But she couldn't win until she stopped Stopped trying and stopped fighting
~G.G. Marshall
