where is that river?

i need something to calm brewing waters
something more soothing than chamomile
or the fireplace

i need peace.
i lose it; sometimes find it
believe i can stumble into it
or summon it

but really, peace always just...
comes
upon me
immersing me.
and my brewing waters are submerged
into something bigger
--endless---

maybe my heart isn't opened
maybe i'm looking too hard.
or not hard enough?

pax christi,
i need you.
what am i willing to give up
to allow you in?
