The Middle's Middle

There is
always two sides
to one story

There is always
the good and a bad
of a situation

There is always
the right and wrong

but they never tell you
that there is that blind side,
that third choice
the one no one could comprehend
or maybe chose not to

because of pride
because of materialism
because of some kind of excuse that
we all know inexcusable

Do you chose to not fight for your belief,
yet stop when you know its enough
to know what you still believe,
to know it's wrong
what you're doing.

Ignore pride
Ignore the excuses,
and tell yourself the harsh truth,
that even though you can't stomach it,
life was never going to get easier,
you only get the chance to understand it more.
