Is it always best to fight
To stay stubborn to the end
Is it always best to battle
With family and friends
Is it always the wise choice
To never back on down
Maybe just this once
You need to hit the ground
I know you think that you
Know every twist and turn
That this pain is for the best
No matter how much it burns
You think that being stubborn
Is the symbol of the strong
But maybe you're full of crap
Maybe this is wrong
Is it worth it to hold out?
Just to say that you could?
And just because you can
Does not mean you should
You try to put on a front
Act like you have no fears
But remember sometimes
Strength shows in tears
Right now I think that you
And I can both agree
That this situation is bad
And is truly starting to be
Something not worth it
To fight for until the end
Perhaps you should just
Stop fighting your parents and friends.
*To a friend who is in a very screwed up mess right now of her own making due to mostly lying and defiance of her parents. Yet she still must maintain her pride and fight until the end, even though it is not wise in the slightest.
