Fate
Fate is not funny
It leaves lines on your face
The race is not set
In stone
Like in graves
And gravity calls
Place
Yet
It falls upon us
With flicker and flames
Then gone to remember
In moments
With names
Fate leaves you lonely
It’s echo no tears
With fears
All to bind you
The missing of years
Not nearer
Nor clearer
It's fate that is seen
In each with a day done
Yet not in a dream
You say you don’t see it
The bit and the brought
In the little while
Don’t smile
Its fate you
See sought
Fates then's a lesson
You see staring
At the door
More or less
It’s you
Don’t see
Me
That’s
Fate
Nothing more
