A Simple Handshake

sometimes an honest
thought spoken eye to eye...
and a simple handshake

stops the war!

what are we fighting for?
who are we fighting against?
and why?

most of what we hate
in other people is the
reflection of ourselves....

most of what we fight
about or over...
wont be here tomorrow!

most of the violence
in this world is based
on lies.... the cancer of lies...

when the simple truth
would set us free.
