That Peace Might Exist
The hate is strong,
Make fun of peace song,
The wars - bloodshed,
The quarrels - veins of the heart dry up,
The grief - hardship,
Exhaust our prayers for revenge .
Peace of roses to flowers,
Peace of fragrance to ambers,
Peace of the cloud to the breeze,
Peace of the stars to the moon,
Peace of the sun to the day,
Peace of the wave to the sea,
Imagine we all live as one
& our smile like the splendor of flowers,
That you might exist;
We want to wake up one day
Feel strong & warm,
Fear not the cold,
See love unite us all,
See the wounded heal,
See the universe as spring.
You might call me a dreamer
But I’m not the only one
Hope you will join me one day
& the world will be one.
