Life,
To stop and think;
Before your actions,
Which can be positive or negative to others.

Life,
With violations here and there!
With guns pointed at each;
But, let us all stop for a while and, think before we act.

Cry, decry!
But, stop and think;
Than putting the world into total destruction!
Because, hatred and wars are not the answers to peace.

Edward Kofi Louis
