Why is War

This is a short poem I did for a competition at www.writing.com.
Why is war?
it seems inevitable
feel its presence grow
Why is war?
death of innocents
while leaders play
Why is war?
we disapprove
TV ratings soar
Why is war?
our children die
far from home
Why is war?
destruction
imposing of will
Why is war?
peace will come
healing begins
Why is war?
we feel relief
we rejoice its end
Why is war?
memory fades
we forget so fast
Why is war?
war lives on
its day shall come again
