Poverty is prevalent
Despair is all around
Hope seems to be silent
While death is screaming

Bodies are maimed
Martyrs are framed
Yet, the world just sits by
in Material Hell

How can one have peace
When depression surrounds
and children are starving
Yet, wars still rage

How can one have peace
When dreams are broken
Justice is dead
The wicked prosper
and faithful are few

How can one have peace
When love just a word
Coax into Hatred
and Hatred to killing
Where in this world is peace

Perhaps, one day this world will come to an end
Pain and sorrow will cease
True joy mend make this world a new
Dreams will be restored
In this I find peace
