Might of Right

Kayden Phoenix 1980 (Houma)



Darkness and light;
Two sides of the same coin;
One cannot be over the other;
Forever they must join.

There's chaos within imperfections
Where no peace can be found;
Balance must be sought,
Or the heartbeat cannot sound.

However, there's still justice
That keeps evil in constant check;
This allows the good in everyone
To battle with the devil at our neck.

Which path will you choose,
The stairway or the rope,
One leading up to heaven,
Or somewhere void of hope?
