A Heated Argument

Is it wrong
To fight
When you know
You're right?
The victim refuses to
Testify
But just minutes ago
You saw it with your own eyes.
Yet...
It's your word against theirs
And they'll deny
Maybe even lie
Until you
Want to
Cry.
It's injustice in
It's most blatant form.
You want to
Fix things.
Is it wrong to
Try?
And yet...
This isn't
Your fight.
Why should you
Care?
Because you do.
Because you're right.
The opposition would like nothing more
Than for you to
Quit.
So they can win
This.
But you can't just watch this go by!
You don't care
if they feel threatened,
or scared.
Because you're there
To see justice through
But why is it
So hard to do?
