The Battle
The battle rages within,
Good against bad,
Right against wrong,
Need versus want,
Duty versus desire,
Can I versus you can not.
Is the cost too high?
Will she pay the price?
Be able to live with herself?
For which is worse,
Settling for what she knows,
Or a lifetime of wondering?
There’s a choice to be made,
A leap to take,
A chance to see.
A hand reaches out,
And with a deep breath,
Her choice is made.
In the end,
The battle may be won,
But the war has just begun.
