If there was peace,

there would be no sorrow.

If there was peace,

no one would worry.

We could all live happily,

in a place of peace.

There is no religion in peace,

for religion brings war.

Don't bring the thing we lost,

in a place long ago.

For I wish,

I wish for peace,

But peace can not be in a place of



war.


The author's comments:
In a place of peace is from my idea of war. Without the things that make us angry, we would be at peace with the world. But sadly that is not human nature. I took a lot of inspiration from the song Imagine by John Lennon. Saying imagine if the world didn't have such things that make us alone. If there was no believing the world could be better but sadly our world is too far in to be revived and given a second chance. Our Earth is a place of war.

Our world is at war, and true. There can be no peace in war. Our world is constantly ar war and trying to have control, when we really we should all be a team. The world is always trying to drag us into their storm. Instead of them dragging us into their storm/storms, how about we drag them in our or into our peace? ^_^ wonderful job! You're a great writer! Thank you, for sharing this!
