Power

Power
What is it about power
That is so inviting
That makes us always yearn for more
It is influence
It is impact
It is popularity
And it is charisma

Why do we want it
Why do I want it
And yet when I have it
It is so difficult to wield correctly
It takes all of my effort not to hurt
Anyone
With the power I have been given

If I could be a child again
Powerless
Without a care
But at the mercy of others
Would I?
Would you?

Powerful
Powerless
We will always choose powerful
