My Dream
During hours of darkness,
I lie in bed awake,
So many hours just thinking,
How much can mankind take?
There have been throughout the ages,
So many years of war,
It makes me really wonder,
Is that what we're here for?
Did God really just create us?
To argue and to fight,
To show hatred and derision,
And belief in power of might.
Or are there men so evil,
That they will never cease,
Their quest for power and glory,
At the price of constant peace.
What makes a man so different?
When he comes from here or there,
Shouldn't tolerance be aimed for?
And something we can all share.
It really makes no difference,
Be it colour, race or creed,
Total peace for all mankind,
Is what we really need.
The God that I do pray to,
Is one that teaches love,
To share oneself with others,
And be like the peaceful dove.
So why do some choose to follow?
A path to war again,
For all we get as a result,
Is much more constant pain.
All of those men and women,
Who always fight for peace,
It just seems so continuous,
Will it ever cease?
We cannot stand back idle,
Be so blind we cannot see,
The bravery of those people,
Who fight for you and me.
They fight that very evil,
From darkness it does spring,
Spreads itself across the world,
Covers almost everything.
Evil must be conquered,
But the price that we must pay,
Is so many, many people,
Don't live to see another day.
Talk to your God often,
Together or alone,
So once where there was darkness,
A bright light now has shone.
We cannot fight that evil,
If we cannot understand,
We need to reach out always,
For God to lend a hand.
No matter who your God is,
Be at peace with Him always,
Any help that we can reach for,
Will somehow show the way.
Let man now live forever,
Side by side again,
So love for one another,
Will return, where once was pain.
Let people from all nations,
Have the right to choose,
Those that seek to guide them,
And their freedom never lose.
If by chance selected,
An evil man to lead,
Then strength and new direction,
Is what the people need.
An inner strength so powerful,
To always do what's right,
Remove evil from the power,
A'fore it begins new fight.
For it is through history's pages,
So many died in vain,
But only those who lead them,
Stand to make any gain.
The leaders will all argue,
The soldiers will fight on,
But at the end of each long day,
It's the soldier that has gone.
Gave their life so freely,
To fight another's cause,
So my eternal question,
Is, do we really need more wars?
My dream for all mankind is,
To have peace and love for all,
So our leaders will then guide us,
If we stumble or we fall.
I dream that one-day soon,
In new day I have found,
That all things we call military,
No longer do abound.
