Book IV: After the Flood
Chapter IV: Choices
 


The Choice

It’s a rope
I can hang
Or climb
The choice is mine
It’s what I’m left with

A deep cavern
I can see its darkness
Or the light at its end
The choice is mine
Its what I’m left with

A helping hand
I could go alone
Or grab onto its strength
The choice is ours
It’s what we start with.
