DEFY AND LIVE

I am inadequate, minor, small, little, a dwarf in a world so big
Afraid to see what is new and that I can change things, afraid to hear what my heart tells me and that what I defy is for a cause even though it may take my life and harm others
But am I truly safe staying away from the conflict and pain than to stand and fight the abomination which threatens the ones I love and care for
For the one I love has ordered me away to protect me as they fight such an evil but what if? What if my fighting by their side gives them the strength they need to accomplish their goal.
