Blinded by the Conflict

As raw emotions controls our mind,

Righteousness is blinded by hatred.

Peace is blind-folded through revenge,

Leading to no sight for a truce.

In order to see harmony at the end of the light,

That dark mask must come off to discover all viewpoints.

Once sight can explore all opinions,

Your brain will see perfect vision.

Forming a pact that was once brutal,

Changing into a civil agreement with many possibilities.

Hello Michael...

Be much easier if everyone wasn't so wishy washy...

It's difficultΒ when you don't know who you can trust...

When you see people kissing other people's butts...

It's a huge turn off for me...

Violence doesn't solve anything...

Once I lose my respect I just let them go...

Great write!Β 

Thank you for sharing...

Hugs...
