War

Violent, cruel wars are everywhere,
All over the place, here and there.
There are truck loads full of guns,
But no food to feed the little ones.

Everywhere you can hear painful cries,
You can see all those pitiful eyes.
People; hear their cries and sobs,
You can almost hear their hearts throb.

You think you are just targeting the bad,
But the amount of innocent dead makes me sad,
All of the bad ones hear my simple plea,
Don’t kill; you’re making people flee.

All these events are just too much,
For those people with no food to touch,
All of this is just too much of a bore,
Just please stop all these terrifying wars.
