We Fight

Why does everything feel like such a fight?

We fight to stay alive.

We fight to thrive.

We fight to win.

We fight to be slim.

We fight by arguing.

We fight by protesting.

We fight to get an education.

We fight to stay qualified in our careers.

We fight to be very right,

but are we sometimes in the wrong?

I know some fighting is good,

but does everything have to feel like such a constant wrangle?
