When Will It All Stop?

What is going on in the world?

Once introduced to one word

“Hate”

Actions arise and innocent people are killed.

Bombs are made for “Protection”

But what is protection when you hurt those not involved in your hate?

What is protection if great numbers of people are tortured?

If mothers are crying out for their young ones who are being shot at?

When will we come to realize that violence isn’t a solution to our hate?

When will we put the guns, bombs and such away?

And just talk out our problems?

When will we stop sending innocent people to fight our fights?

When will hate stop controlling our actions?

When will we learn how to love our neighbors as we love ourselves?

When will we stop hiding behind our weapons and deal with problems head on?

When will we stop repeating history?
