I hear many cries for Peace
Tyrants being replaced with
Many Tyrants in pursuit of
Finding Peace. Each Dawn
Filled with passion of avoiding
War but every step tips off the
Balance of self hatred and love

I hear many cries for Peace
Leaders so focused on the
Economics of the world. The
World being dependent on
Economics which erodes the
morals of Peace, leaving humanity
In jeopardy of mass destruction.

I hear many Cries for Peace
Nations finding excuses to
Attack other nations. The liberty
Of existence being wiped away by
Those who hold power in their hands.
The true nature of Peace being
Intoxicated with lavish desires of
Recognition and title.

I hear many cries for Peace
People holding grudges but
Pretending to love and care.
Suppressing emotions of anger
But forgetting that time will
Not hold it long. A sense of
Belonging leading many into
Denial with their own hearts.

I hear many cries for Peace
People killing in the name of
Religion. Forgetting the true
Nature of religion, inner step
Towards purity. People fighting
For recognition as part of a group.
Muslims, Christians, Jews as the
List goes by, so does the differences.

I hear many cries for Peace
Humanity defining peace as
The avoidance of War. Yearning
For a Peaceful world without war
But forgetting that Peace is to
Establish a culture of living in
In love and care. Love that sees
No race, Love that respect no
gender and Love that delight's
In forgiving. Love that exists
In the heart, and in the heart
Peace is manifested to prevent
Perilous times of nations rising
Against nations.
