A Mouse to a Lion

After all the good,

Our entire past

Do you really wish

That you had ended it?

Ended all we had,

Over a minuscule, substantial thing?

A mouse to a lion

In the grand scheme.

What we have is worth fighting for.

 

Do you really wish you had just ended it

Right then and there?

A mouse to a lion

In the grand scheme

Of all we have.
