The Difference


Two voices call out.

"Follow me and you will bleed.
You will work hard through years;
And suffer greatly in the toil."

"Follow me and you will succeed.
You will have all you wish;
And great shall be your power."

Many choose the first Voice;
And many choose the second.
Through the passing ages;
The follow they're choice.
Until they come again;
To the place of choosing;
And regale their Voice.

"You said nothing of the blood.
"We can't live without fear.
"There are enemies in the shadows."

And the second voice answered.

"You never asked for the price."

"You said nothing of the joy.
"We can't fear while alive.
"There are songs in the night."

And the first voice answered.

"You never asked for the reward."
