To Lord of War

Sir, forgive my lack of knowledge
I was never taught about war
In my mind it doesn’t make sense
However, purposes, I’m sure, there are

I do believe, Sir, you know the reason
But, please, do not say that is because you need
You should know that all treasures that are destroyed during a war
There is no word, nobody, and nothing that can ever succeed

These treasures that I’m talking about
Are much more than every explanation that you can give me as “why”
They are lives, trends, emotions and sensations
That you’ll never, ever be able to supply

Every one of us needs at least one life
To grow up, dream, teach, smile, love and learn
Do you still remember? You have had your chance
Now, Sir, it seems to be “my turn”

So, I beg you Sir
Do not use your weapons against me
I know you have never seen me before
Yet, I swear, I’m not your enemy

I’m peace, I’m happiness, I’m hope
I’m the world’s future; In short, I’m a child
Although, it’s less than you want
Believe me, Sir, it’s enough for a while
