Black and White

Are good things always right?

Is it wrong to put up a fight?

 

There are gray areas that exist,

In fact there is an endless list.

 

What if an old man stole bread?

Is that not better than him being dead?

 

There is good and bad,

But the truth is always sad.

 

Don’t think of only wrong and right,

For there is sunset before every night.
