Right or Wrong

"Who will solve this?"
The teacher as she asked
The boy raised his hand
He always knew the answer.

Years of Grandpa's tales
Had made him wise enough
The white from the black
A truth and a lie
He could tell it all
Choices came easy
The principles stood tall.

But this time when he stood
The walls came collapsing
As he thought harder
One after the other
The minutes just passed
Years of moral lessons
Could be of no use
"Wife, or the baby?"
The doctor as he asked
The man knew no answer
He wasn't after all God.
