Destiny
I have spent 1460 days chasing you
When u play that hide and seek game, I start to panic as you forget I'm turning grey
You told me before
The desires we have contradict
And I chose to ignore
The seeds I needed for defeat
Now I'm here once again
Introducing myself like im insane
As you already know my name
Is it bound that things will be the same?
Is it wrong that I long to finally touch you by my rough and swollen hands ?
That have been twisted that every time I'm an inch close my mind bends
Is it because you have a class or standard that i dont meet
The mere fact that you are too difficult to greet
Or I am too damaged to even be considered and fixed
I'm talking to you Destiny
Are you even listening?if so.....
How long does one have to run and finish the race?
I'm tired of running I really need to see your face
