Who am I?

They are waiting

For my answer,

So sure

That I will

Fall into their steps.

What should I say?

How should I

Tell them that

I am trying

To find

My own way?

"Are you

With us?"

They snarl

Like a pack

Of foreboding

Wolves.

They seem

Perfect

On the outside

But filled

With flaws

On the inside.

I don't really

Want to be

With them,

But do I

Have a choice?

Yes,

I realize.

I feel braver

As I realize

That there is

Always

Another way.

Wasn't that

What the preacher

Was talking about?

I can stand

For what

Is right…

Even though

Others

May think

I am wrong.

But who

Really cares

What they think

When I

Stand for God?

Is He not

More

Powerful

Than they?

They,

Who fill

Their hearts

With evil

And tempt

Innocent ones

To follow them?

'Lord,'

I think,

'Grant me

The strength

To stand

For You.'

'You who saved

The Israelites

From the

Pharoah

And conquered

The giant.'
