We must find peace

We must find peace

Finding peace in this world or even 

within ourselves is not just words 

to be said out loud just for the sake 

of it to be heard coming from out

of our lips and mouth, No, for it is something 

that we, meaning you and me together

must make come true, so I truly do

believe whether you are writing for 

peace maybe even sing a song about 

it or even sit at home and pray for 

peace, we must all come together

to do whatever It is you can do. 

We must stop all of the murder, 

We must stop all the rape, 

We must stop all the wars, 

We must stop all the hate, 

We must stop all of the, violence 

We must stop all the ignorance

We must stop all the greed

let's stop what we are doing step back

give this earth time to breathe. it is 

time to believe give peace a chance

to begin for if we do not stop killing

each other this world will more than 

likely come to an end sooner then later. Peace is a 

process and that will take time because 

we must all first find peace from within 

ourselves deep down inside. We

must start to teach only of patience, 

understanding, and love It really should 

not be that very hard to decide for

our children deserve so much more 

than hiding out inside to play for the

ridiculous fear of being taken, beaten, 

or even bullied all because of their

race, color, or religion even what they 

do, or might say.

Peace is what we must all believe in.

Peace is how we will all be saved.

Peace is what we all should be talking about.

Peace is the only way
