War is not the answer

The world has chosen
A correct path
To destroy the terrorism, hatred & violence
By making a war,

Many say,
War is the answer,
Many say,
War is not the answer,
But what my heart says
War is not only the answer
But always a question
That only remains question in reason
Not the answer at all,

It does not kill a man but a soul of us,
It does not shed the blood but tears our feelings into pieces,
War does bring neither love nor hatred,
War is only war,

War will corrupt the beautiful world,
A world will have a gloomy look then,
War is not solution to any nation,
War is not a peace-maker that a country should believe

War has a horrible face like nightmare,
War is a leak in the ship that sinks,
War is a disgrace brings no respect & peace

Why not a war of love among us?
Why not a war of honesty among us?
Why not a war of peace among us?
Why not a war of brotherhood among us?

A war has its own definition
When we turn it into truth
A war to unite all in one like a family forever

Thanks Pushkar.
Unfortunately, murderous, genocidal war IS the answer for the many cowards in our government who send others to die allegedly "For King and Country", yet who personally profit from waging it.

This poem asks a question of the reader and also supplies the answer. A topical poem as we witness the tragic events of war in Palestine.
Thank you for this,
Keith
