*Its not just the absence of war
It is Living, Learning and Changing
Peace
Will be when tanks become homes
And old grenades are cups that are used to sip water
Peace is when shades of green are only worn by nature
It will be when the fences no longer divide us
Its the calmness in one's heart
The brightest blue skies
Accompanied with the softest innocent clouds
Peace is when nature is uncorrupted
And reality is not distorted
Its natural beauty
Not chemical deformity
Nor the extinction of humanity
Peace is hope
Its life
Its love
Its faith
Peace is the content feeling
Of knowing you're safe*

Not chemical deformity
Nor the extinction of humanity
Peace is hope

Its love
Its faith
Peace is the content feeling
Of knowing you're safe*
