Peace and Conflict


What is the point of them?

How could this be?

Is there anything wrong with a world full of peace?

People lose their children, their lovers, their lives

No one should ever have to die

Words should be exchanged

Not gunfire

We should shake hands

Not shoot

It is not just battles that are over seas

But what is all around

Peace should be priority

Conflict should never be an option

No one should have to endure the pain

Fighting for peace is a contradiction

Striving for peace

Is the only option
