War for Peace



Mankind always finds a reason for war
In the quest to seige and is not fair

With discord  for vengeance he craves
Armed he charges, he is making slaves

Then laments, mourns the devastations
Men are in graves due to destructions

The battles fought in vain for supremacy
Without understanding futility of felony

With so much bloodshed of soldiers
In the lucid light of grief, hands on holsters

The debris and the bodies are a warning
For humans, for the war to be denouncing

To respect the creator, let peace prevail
Like brothers live together without fail
