People are fighting
Fighting for life
Fighting about
when it begins
who gets to decide
The fate of the unborn life
People are fighting
Fighting for their life
Fighting to breathe because of a disease
While others
Are fighting for the strength to go another day despite overwhelming despair
And others still
fight the odds and obstacles to bring new life into the world
People are fighting
Fighting to sustain life of those in their charge
Fighting with medication, ventilation
and all the tools and knowledge we can employ
Fighting….
For life
To begin
To stay
To end
To never have existed
What are we really fight for?
Who are we really fighting for?
I thought it was for you
Maybe it was for me
When is it time to fight
When is time to just be
Life
Breath
Life
Death
What are we fighting for?
