An Answer

You ask ME,
why there is War?
My love, I will tell you of humanity.
When you ask me of humanity.
I will tell thee of Love.
  Ask me of Love, And I shall tell you
of Pain.
To speak of Pain,
I will teach you to Fear.

   To speak of Fear, you must learn of Need.
To learn of Need. I must answer in
Want.
  When I tell you of Want,
You shall Know of Longing.

When you understand
what it is, to ..Long.
  I will tell you of Children, and you
shall learn of Beauty.

   When you learn of Beauty.
We will speak of Peace.
   When you know Peace,
Then Love, I shall take your hand.
   When you ask, 
"Do I Love?".
I shall Kiss you.
When you ask,
"Have I Loved"
I shall answer,
"You are here.".
   I will hold you in your Pain.
I will Fear that you should know War.
   I will Pray that your children,
Create Art of their Love.
And have a life of Beauty,
I will long that they shall grow old,
And Know more,..Peace
Then I have yet,
...to Learn.
  
And when I learn, I shall know god,
An Answer I Pray.
