Too Much to Ask
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 tooΒ Β much to ask
but not impossible to act on it
Did this poem about Peace for a class but it's a cry I've had ever since.
