No man is an island – what, then, are we?
They keep on raping our women;
Could we ever be free?
They`re tormenting – maiming our children!
How, in heavens name, could it be
That war brings peace?
Do tell me please,
Will this hatred ever cease?
Venus, Roman goddess of beauty...love,
Also the solar systems brightest planet;
If we are from there, why all the cruelty –
Is fragility making us an easy target?
Since ancient times, men have been warriors, soldiers,
Safe guarding state borders, lands and portals;
Today though, there aren`t any barriers.
War is projected towards female mortals;
Children always, innocent, frail, sufferers
Of lawless, sadistic, in-human, murderers.
Dear God in heaven, Your love I perceive,
Creator of all beings, this pain, do relieve,
In anguish and awe, I fervently pray
Father, You know the only way.
