The Warrior Within Us 

Kingdoms, empires and countries all continue 

to need warriors to protect them from

enemies that keep their citizens safe.

But that's not always the reason for wars.

As for me, I honor our warriors

because they make great  great sacrifices

for each and every one of us

and they don't  get to choose.

It is one thing to question 

the reasons as civilians

but there is never a good reason

to dishonor our warriors.

The problem is that when we

demonstrate against wars

our enemies that we aren't 

supporting our warriors

and many more warriors

die because of that.    

We all want to live in peace

but because of our opposition

thousands more of our warriors die.

Supporting our warriors 

whatever the reason will save

thousands of warriors lives.

You may not like what I write

though you know that 

our warriors long for peace

but what I have written 

every word of it is true.

Our efforts for peace 

should be focused 

during the time before wars

when our warriors lives

aren't in any danger.

That way we don't encourage

our enemies to do much more

to kill our warriors.

Let's make our world better

by bringing unity, love and caring

in the whole human family.
