WAR

war.jpg
War,
There are world wars,
Business wars,
Political wars,
Religious wars,
Gang wars,
Family wars,
Friend wars,
But the most detrimental is the self-war.
People are always in want,
Always on the hunt,
To hide themselves away,
From the vanity of the day.
Let me do this,
Let me do that,
Whatever it is,
To keep myself busy,
From the huge empty vat.
It’s so empty because we do not fill,
For it takes quietude,
Peace,
Patience,
Love,
Openness,
Charity,
Things like these,
That is not vanity.
But it would still be a war,
Because it would be then these things we would be fighting for.
But emptiness and vanity would slip away,
And in our future we’d all be together throughout our days.
War is inevitable in this life we live,
But what we’re fighting for can change into bliss.
War…
