Hope for peace

Distruction and chaos
Brings pain and suffering
Enveloping everything in darkness
Echoes of screams in every corner
Fear reflecting in the eyes
Binding thoughts that long to soar

It is said after the end comes the beginning 
After death, a new life
We will hold onto hope
But how when it comes with a price 

Yet, hope is what we hold 
The faith that we have 
Nothing can shake it 

We will keep trying
No matter the times
We will hope for peace
No matter the price
We will raise our voice
A chorus of change


A new beginning 
Or a new way of thinking 
Whatever brings peace 
We will strive for it.
