#givepeaceachance Poem by Romeo Della Valle

The loud sound of rockets
Blindly hitting the grounds
Where the wolves are absent
But desperate humans remain,
Carrying the heavy load of pain,
Running to nowhere since
From death, there is not escape!

Prayers not heard,
Wounds not healed,
Life becomes meaningless
When reasoning perishes
Before reaching Heaven's gate!

Desperate mothers
Holding tight to their children
With no time for explanations
When fireballs are falling
From the once beautiful skies!
No one to be blamed
But man's failure to reason,
Respect and love one another!

We all were created
To the image of the Almighty:
To peacefully share
Our priceless existence
But now the Evil's spirit
Has the upper hand
Turning our beautiful Earth
Into a living Hell!

Here I am, the Poet,
Silently praying and crying
Trying to hold to my last hope
That Peace will have
One more chance!
