No War Only Peace

My gentle request 

Turned into a dictating command 

As she denied outrightly

Resulting in disobedience

And finally, we began

Confronting,

Consciously hurting each other's pride.

The role of mediator did arise 

Who was puzzled and unable to decide 

As each of the two opponents 

Refused to retreat

She thinks it's her birthright to contradict 

And I think I should only chide.

The heated arguments

Do not benefit anyone 

It's hard to decide 

Who is right 

It harms the goodwill

Harmony breathes its last 

Maybe this is how peace is lost

Friends, family, people

Hearts, souls, and nations divide.

Hatred garners only malice

Revenge and enmity 

Stop spewing venom my friends 

And hail humanity!

I suggest -

let's excuse and apologize 

Throw away our false pride

 Let's live in harmony

Be each other's guiding light 

Let's train our mind to calm 

And tame it as we wish

There wouldn't be war in this world 

Only happiness and peace
