When placed between two loyalties
And a choice needs to be made
Reason and logic disappear
And simplicity starts to fade.

Once the decision has been made,
A line has now been crossed
I have the sense to recognize
A side that is now lost

The more I try to do the right
The harder I seem to fall
You have no idea the strength it takes
To try and remain standing tall.

At the cost of everything I hold dear
I will continue to walk this path
And though I know it will anger many,
I am ready to face their wrath.

T.. Veronica
