Conscientious Objectors

We are the few, at whom others gaze with disbelief, wishing they were strong enough to speak their minds, wondering how they, too, might gain internal relief.

There is always a penalty – whether by external imposition, or the price you pay for turning against inside what you know to be right.

It’s just a matter of what we each think we are willing to bear, and in the end, I am left alone with my conscience.

I want it to be clean – for the world, and for me.
