Thoughts about War

All of the planning,
all the precision.
All of the ideas,
lead to a decision.

All of the lives,
all of the lifestyles.
A world full of people,
with just a short while.

In the blink of an eye,
it's all taken away.
All because of power struggles,
pride, egos, and greed that won't sway.

So much gunfire,
so much bloodshed.
Each precious life,
left for dead.

I see the fear in their eyes,
and can imagine their pain.
All of the goodbyes,
lives lived in vain.

I see the sadness,
it's all I can find.
Families busted apart,
sorrow in the eyes of the children left behind.

War is not the answer,
why is that so hard to see?
Lives were made to be lived,
Peace is true victory............

Just some thoughts from a peace lover.

    Right on sis!
    Our love must not be just words, but True Love, which shows itself in action,
    No one needs a smile more than someone who fails to give one,
    After you die...you know how to LIVE!
