The Change
In life's complexity I crave
sweet tranquility...
I yearn for rest, seek simplicity.
The days fill with trial and delusion,
hunger bends in quiet seclusion.
I look around and all I see are souls in anguish,
sorrows moving me.
I am plagued with myriad choice,
A chance to run or raise my voice.
I'll be a change I hope to see,
A buffer in adversity
When I lay my head to sleep
the dreams that come will murmur peace.

"hunger bends in quiet seclusion..." What a beautiful line! "...the dreams that come will murmur peace" also, both lines that feature intangible things (dreams, hunger) taking action.
I think that rhyming poems are easier to write, but ultimately harder to write well, so when I see that a poem is using rhyme my antennae tend to go up. I relaxed after a line or two with this one tho, I thought you made excellent use of the form without it feeling contrived. Beautifully written, following you :)
