Who am I?

Discrimination.
Racism
Hatred
Inequality
Favouritism
Injustice
Intolerance

I am caused by all of the above.
How invisible am I?
I am all across the world
From Middle East to Russia
From Tibet to Somalia
I am all over
I have conquered
I am so close
I lie deep in the hearts of man
I am loved and hated
Cherished and rejected
I am a simple 8 lettered word
Can you guess?

Destructiveness
Savagery
Cruelty
Terrorism

I don’t think so yet.
Get ready get set
I span from east side to west side
I am a cause of pride
The reason why so many have died

I am the antonym of passiveness and peace
I am a simple 8 letter word
I am strong
I am every where
But I’m not invincible
I am abolishable

I am the weapon of mass destruction.
I have destroyed the past
And will do so to the future


Who am i?
I am easy to guess
Let me spell it out
V-I-O-L-E-N-C-E
Violence

You need to remember
The famous line that was once said
United we stand and divided we fall.
And that is how I am conquered.

That is really amazing!
I loved how you wrote so that readers wanted to read on! As lovly_audrey said, I loved how you wrote like you were violence itself!

Hey flying.in.ecstasyy
I really liked your poem! It's amazing I didn't see any spelling or grammar mistakes. I loved how you spoke like You were violence you know? I thought that was very creative and made the poem's meaning a lot stronger. I'm betting you are a bit of a "Go Green" person? maybe..? haha.
Anyway great job I really did love the poem.
=)



All truly wise thoughts have been thought already thousands of times; but to make them truly ours, we must think them over again honestly, till they take root in our personal experience.
