Unneccesary War

Gunshots fired from side to side, Helpless people trying to hide, Raiding soldiers destroying ones home. Killing a child’s family leaving him all alone, Sitting their crying for what he just saw; Saying a prayer to his merciful Allah; Wishing the war will be over and done; Not knowing the war has just begun; Hiding under the table to wait for his savior; His hearts hurting from witnessing this behavior; He lays down to sleep never to awake; So stop fighting for the peoples sake; Peace among countries is what people need; Stop all the fighting and we will succeed; Also bring our troops home out of Iraq; Leave Iraq alone and let them rise back; So I say lets have peace among others; For what we really are... are sisters and brothers.
