Peace In An Unstable World
Peace In An Unstable Word
Peace as a people is impossible
If one Nation has peace another is Hostile
Peace for us is unreal
Because for one Nation to have peace another is killed
We fend ourselves at others expense.
For small Portions of peace blood is spent
Is this peace I see an Illusion
An Invasion of rights with a fatal conclusion
Would you call this peace or instability
Or people saving themselves to the best of their ability
A world fixated on helping themselves
Real Peace is a world for helping each other
A world where all peoples are considered a brother
Each helping another, not hating others
Real Peace creates stability
Lives are preserved, not token by ill will
Rational functions lead to less killed
But different worlds under dictation
Worlds where freedom of speech will cause annihilation
Where individual thought is impossible by fear of Discrimination
Peace in this world? Where, How?
In this world peace is unallowed
Pain of other worlds is usually unseen
Ignorance of lives token for false means
People left in pain with hearts to bleed.
For as long as cultures stay separated
And we hate by accusation
Or take others freedom for self gratification
Our illusion will disintegrate
War will break out and no place will be safe
No way to keep life sustained
Only then will man seek real peace
But by then it will be too late
Our world will be over and life will suffer defeat.
