I had this to say:

The Death of Peace

Where peace once stood and freedom rang, the people hid, the sky stood gray.

The world was dark, its depth untold, the night had come to stay.

Sorrow ran in molten tears, no children came to play.

Peace had died, mankind slain, on one September day.

Today,  I cannot add anything to what I felt 10 years ago.  Life is sad beyond belief at times.
