War

Wars are grasping into this world

You can hear the children's cries

Everybody has left…except for one, one little girl

Behind a chair inside a house

She cries softly

Hiding from the men that have come to her home destroying it

While hearing the others' screams of their last breaths

She wants to help

Wants to get help

Wants to end the hurt

Yet… one voice is not enough

We have lost our selves

Along the way into this war

And stopped becoming a world of

Peace, Joy, Love, happiness

And turning into

Violence, hatred, enemies,

And turning to weapons instead of talking peacefully

Can we not help them?

Can we not stop this madness?

Can we not heal the broken hearted?

Can we not help the people that suffer?

So if we can

Why do we fight?

For peace, even if it causes more deaths

And when there are more deaths wouldn't that mean there are more broken hearts and suffering?

Now… that you have read this,

Are these the reasons we are fighting in war?

If not,

Then what are we fighting for?
