Michael Takhellambam - I Have Two Choices- (I)

I've two choices indeed-
One i like, the other i need...


Though born in the dark,
I live in the light.
This life- forged so hard,
As to be fit to fight.
And i've won as always,
And then 'twixt two choices;
I have two choices indeed,
One i like, the other i need...


I'm burdened with their 'being what',
The whole body's got singed.
Even then grow the passions ultra-hot;
For with them WAS the blood tinged.
She bursts out singing the soprano,
And touches pliantly my inner piano.
I've two choices indeed-
One i like, the other i need...


I step towards the voice,
But the scourge of duty shadows the choice.
The son in me PLEDGED me to gratitude,
And to serve in the just magnitude.


I've two choices indeed-
One i like, the other i need...
