Where Does Peace Lie

violence.
such cruelty.
so much hate.
hate in the world.
where does peace lie?
within us all?
is true peace dead?
have we lost?
lost all thats good?
do we only have evil?
is evil all thats left?
left in our world.
why must we fight?
why must we kill?
where do we regain the light?
the light of love.
the light of peace.
of happiness.
when do we find?
find the peace we lost?
before all life dies.
where does peace lie?
