The Right to Peace
Peace is here,
Waiting, watching
Over those
Whom death ignores.
Illness and suffering,
Hopeless pain ...
Help is near
When hearts implore.
Disease ignores
The heart and soul.
Long and painful
Is Nature's role.
The end should come.
Real living's no more
For those with illness
Who death ignores.
Peace waits for cries,
Then takes control,
To bring relief,
To free the soul.
Peace can help.
Peace is ...
Euthanasia ...
The Right to Peace.
