Peace...there is no such thing...

Have we ever really had peace?

Peace, there is no such thing… When we have peace, We seem to have too little money. When we have peace, We are never, or so it seems, happy. When we have peace, Some jerk gets into office to start a war. When we have peace, We seem to build more weapons of war. When we have peace, Our children are afraid of annihilation. When we have peace, Wait just a minute, Do we ever really have peace? The only peace I think we can have, Is the piece we enjoy in bed, With someone or our other halves! So, again, do we ever really have peace? Like John & Yoko stated long ago, Lets Give Peace a Chance… (in peace, ED)

It's hard to know where you stand on the issue, but at the end I think you're in favor of peace. I think this is supposed to be sarcastic. I think...

Growing up alone is not so bad...

Alone in life...

Memories I am Unable to Forget...

To wish for death...

I find it interesting that only in the wee hours of the morning is when I find myself able to write anymore... <br>

Rain, thunder & lightning, oh my...

Hey, I think I might have found a little humor...?
