For a short time peace silently reigns,
but "as a thief in the night" it instantly changes.
What was once apathetic co-existance,
is no longer in "acceptable ranges".
No one appreciates peace;
until war looms overhead.
why can't we be more preventative,
instead of laying to rest more dead?
Agressive actions add fuel to the fire.
We live in a world of "peace promising liars".
Anything to be elected.
Their self indulgence can't be neglected.
Too bad it's us who pay for the peace they've rejected.
