A Poem about Conflict

conflict is an interesting subject
as it brings to mind external strife
however, is anything ever external?

strife and conflict are born within
amid the scattering of self through mind
torn apart from simplicity and wonder
the anxious to be loved plots to be
when letting go of plotting is all

love self and be without conflict
love others and lose self in peace
