POEM FOR PEACE

POEM FOR PEACE

Where is Peace
When it's needed
Most?
What of Friendships
And Tolerence?


What has gone
Wrong
With our world
Sulking in
Shadows
Of Indifference?

Love is a
Cast away
An unrequited
Feeling
It would seem...

Just the kind
That was 
Told in stories
Of Romance
Narratives of
Old!

Patience, crawls
Thin
Starved and denied
Of being...

How, oh how
Did humanity
Reach this
State
Where Peace
Is a thing
To be sold 
And bought
Not a beautiful 
Way of 
Living...?

I wonder, I ponder
I think
Sad that this
World is
Teetering on
Destruction's brink!
