In Your Hands
Note: This poem first appeared in the 1998 edition of Aries, a literary magazine in my hometown.
In Your Hands
You risk everything
Falling popularity, friendships ending
It may be wrong, but…
It’s in your hands!
You take on an issue
Adding controversy, taking sides
Yet it’s life…
And it’s all in your hands.
You seize your chance
Risking everything, playing your ace
Just the facts, nothing else
Just an opportunity
To take life in your hands.
