Peace Over War

PEACE OVER WAR

What do they gain those who blindly rule?
Leaders of nations, countries and the world
Leading to bleeding sliding peace’s feeling

Encouraging hostility for their foolish raging
Destroying humanity to keep their reign
Choosing war over peace for people to drain

Smoke of weapons to the skies for an acid rain
No trees to grow even the sowed grain
Lives as a cost with nothing to gain

Counterfeiting liberty with unstoppable atrocity
Child loosing mother, mainstay leaving their family
Hospitals and graves becoming the best vicinity

So, let this poetry be for the leaders to lead for harmony
For there is no victory in war except misery
To lead for peace rewriting the sorrowful history!
