Peace In The World Poem by Anna Hardin

I am despair.
I wonder how people could be happy at such desperate times.

I hear people crying.
I see people dying.
I want peace in the world.
I am war.

I pretend that everything is alright.
I feel sad.
I touch the souls of the wounded.
I worry about what will happen next.
I cry everyday and die inside.
I am ill.

I understand how the economy's down.
I say that I am alright, but I'm not.
I dream that there will be peace in the world soon.
I try not to be afraid, not to lose hope, yet I do.
I hope that people don't stop hoping themselves, but they do.
I am true fear and anger.
