i rEfuse...

"...We will not go quietly into the night
We will not give up without a fight..."

I refuse:
to be bought with a price, to listen & not hear...
to live & not learn, to love just a little...
to be apathetic in the face of adversity...
to take things for granted until they are gone...

I cannot:
stop the dance, leave the music, slow the ride...
or even jump off when it hits the bottom...

BUT

I can:
stand tall, sit up, speak out...
walk far, reach up, & hold on...

for if you refuse one thing & cannot do another...
you have hit two of three sections.....
& all you are now left with... is the choice to GO...

..."Second star on the right and straight on till morning"...
