Time has flown by. Much of your life
you've spent denying all the strife.
But you can never answer why
much of your lifetime has flown by.
Hand each sad tale you write in. Long,
ambiguous, verbiage strong -
saved in your mind. You never fail -
you write in longhand each sad tale.
Verse of the truth? Such is the con
that you have staked your life upon,
as though you never lost your youth.
Such is the converse of the truth.
Come to believe you need an out
from all that causes fear and doubt
Ask for the truth; you will receive.
You need an outcome to believe!
Come, be that one that you can be
Embrace this as your destiny:
Be all (when all is said and done)
That you can become. Be that one.
