War And Fear

To live peacefully amongst ourselves,
Would be a blessing in itself,
In this life of hatred and war,
Why do good souls have to fall?
Families suffer the wrath of greed,
Powerless,
Frightened,
Longing to be free,
From the fear of death and suffering,
For they can’t do anything,
But hope and pray,
That peace and tranquility,
May return one day,
Until then,
Many more lives will be lost,
For war comes at a heavy cost.
