A Pacifist's Poem

A Pacifist's Poem

I do not understand my friend,

how you can fight until the end.

I'd like to stop a moment short,

catch my breath and then just walk.

and perhaps then we can talk,

and tear our differences apart,

without being torn apart.

I’d like to think,

Did you know this story is from Royal Road? Read the official version for free and support the author.

that we’d agree,

to simply be,

just you,

and

me.

But,

things,

aren’t simple,

and words get caught up

in the streets, while love is lost

among defeats. Why can’t we simply rest awhile?

Take a break. Try to smile, for no reason other than we’re here,

and not yet lost the will to care.
