Why One

Why does one have to be?
The war isn't won with one. 
I know this for sure.
I have to see for myself.
Where does it say...

...that one way is the right way
that everything ends in one, 
or worse yet, nothing at all.
That is not free.

Why does one have to be?
I do not understand.
I don't want to cause trouble...

but what if instead of two
i said...

..."double?"
