If your ideals

They do offend

Do not hide them

Or pretend

To be that which

Just isn’t you

Hold your belief

And what is true

Within your heart

And in your mind

Can bring a calm

And you might find

That knowing this

Can make you strong

To even admit

When you are wrong

But when you know

It’s just not right

Something compels you

To stand and fight

You feel it’s wrong

In every bone

They want us to feel

Lost and alone

And in this charade

We try and make sense

While many are stuck

It seems on the fence

Or just don’t see where this is going
