Why must war take place?

We could be equal, every gender and race

 

But presidents and dictators make that unreal

They need to know how The People feel

 

They're killing our families one by one

Maybe our dad, his brother, her mother, their son

 

Weapons of mass destruction destroy our lands

People getting tossed out of humanity like old cans

 

All I'm saying is spread the peace and show love

We could end all war and fly that white dove


The author's comments:

What inspired me to write this poem was just war. Mainly my dad. My dad is in the millitary and so are some of my mom's friends who are very close to me. And it dawned on me that I really don't like war. Of all the good things from most of it, there are bad things twice the things that are good.
