Too Much to Ask

by @gillian-cortez

It can't be too much to ask... Okay, so maybe it is How hard is it to achieve a world of peace? I am tired of the wars; what are you even fighting for? Why prove bravery with a gun when it threatens everyone? Why insist on these disputes? I call for a truce but I guess it won't be easy for us to have unity It's hard seeing people die by the hundreds, thousands, millions what's even harder is knowing the reasons that will never justify the blood and bones It's ironic how we try to achieve peace by means of killing... I long for a world of harmony Where we're free of animosity I guess it's too  much to ask but not impossible to act on it
