Calmly and quietly
Through life
I’ll proceed
Enjoying the peace
That it brings to me
Quietly and calmly
Nothing too loud
Garish or brash
Just quietly serene
Aiming to last
Keeping under control
Emotions of love
Joy and happiness
Tinged with sadness
Remorse and regret
Quietly and calmly
I’ll carry on
Seeking new friendships
Old ones defended
Until the very end
