Let us live

Let us live...

War in Ukraine, in Gaza, in Lebanon, in Iran and also, some time later, war will break out, in the whole world, too..

And between the ruins of decadence and death, we are just here, too.

We, the newborns and the little children of this world, who certainly want and have the right to live, just like you do, too.

The silent innocent victims of all the wars are as always and mostly, exactly, just we.

Because you are at least that, who do still provoke the wars, you are those, who you sell weapons, you are that, who are bombing us, or you send drones and rockets against us, at last and obviously, for your own illegal and pointless wins, only.

Against us, who want and have the right to live, just like you do, too...

Therefore, you, who are provoking the wars in this our world, stop finally selling the weapons and the other tools of the death and let us live:

WITHOUT WARS,
WITHOUT BOMBINGS AND 
WITHOUT ROCKETS AND TERROR ABOVE OUR HEADS..

And also, abolish for ever the wars and let us live with our hands, our feet and our good hope to grow up.

And please, let us not getting disables or even dead, before having time to head on life, sun, heaven, universe and the nature, which has created for us too, our Allmighty and Allcreator Lord. 

Yes, let us live too, just like you live, because, beyond and over all, we are absolutely not fault at you, at all.

Thank you endlessly for your so kind words, which made me so glad and encourage me, to express further more, my thoughts through poetry... The Lord created a world, to live in permanent peace, in this our, so beautiful planet. Therefore, war must be abolished, at all! Because, as just, former US President John Kennedy, said: Either we, the humanity, must abolish the war, or the war will certainly, abolish us! Have a nice day!
