What's right?

[Tarsarlan]

Am i doing what's right,
if it makes someone happy,
even if those above me,
say that its wrong.
Who should be happier?
Those who pull the strings,
or those tangled in knots?
Am i doing what's right,
if it makes someone happy,
even if it means,
i suffer some pain.
What price on others happiness?
Am i worth so little,
that i can't give?
Am i doing what's right,
if it makes someone happy,
even if its said,
it will lead him astray.
Who makes the call?
Those who blindly follow,
or those who have no master?
Am i doing what's right,
if it makes someone happy,
while the faceless mob,
think that i'm wrong.
What is the societal norm?
Quietly conform,
or quest clarity?

it is a thin tightrope indeed, and the trick is to not fall off.

wow..nice work..i love this line:
"Who should be happier?
Those who pull the strings,
or those tangled in knots?"

"Right" is subjective.
Do what your heart tells you...it won't lie.
