Peace
Peace must be guarded like a flame,
For once it dies,
Cities crumble,
And fear walks freely.
Those who break peace
Have never paid its price—
For it is forged in blood and sweat,
Spilled so strangers may live.
Therefore, guard it with courage,
With a zeal stronger than rage;
For peace thrives not on might alone,
But on hearts willing to choose it.
