I try never to think of it
but...
sometimes i wonder if i crossed a line
sometimes i wonder if i will end up being a turn coat
my heart is rebellious
i wonder if im supposed to pick up the stone and throw it
if im supposed to write the words that give people hope
and sometimes
this small voice in my head
whispers
that i betrayed them all by taking this path
i want a better life, is that so wrong?
this feels right, but is it?
im worried that im the soldier who joins the wrong side
for the right reasons:
i want to protect my family
at what cost?
this is what the small voice wonders
if by choosing the badge to give my family a better life
ive turned my back on the world that needs my rage and my words
for now, i will duck my head and shoulder on
and try not to think about it
doubt means starvation, no family, and no peace.
