Because It is Right

Because It is Right

A Poem by Carew

All I ever want in life is to do right.

To be a guiding light,

To help others survive.

 

Who gives a f**k about recognition?

There is only one reason.

Because it is right.

 

Naturally, I fail,

And I can’t help but dwell.

Regret is constant,

Haunting the conscience.

But I’m trying.

 

When I’m entering the unknown,

I hope I left good behind.

Something kind to find.

 

Even just smiling.
