Fate's Place

Sometimes fate's embrace is laced with tough love offering stern hugs from above & its intimate kisses never miss their mark Some leave you scarred from birth & left wondering who arranged this stark date with destiny At times the best of me struggles with the optimistic view due to the optics of life's darker hues This life is shaded by perceptions but the deception of the eyes can hide truth in plain sight Proof isn't always apparent on the surface but can be found in the background behind main attractions We have to fight to pay attention due to distractions as the cost of being oblivious can be troublesome Quarrelsome are the hidden forces that can prove to be detrimental but the battle is won in the mental space We're fated to find our place on the battle grounds of life in bodies that serve as rentals racing to the finish line The front lines are littered with letters spelling doom but we're destined to rise above this chat room The circular fashion of life can tire one not equipped to handle the ride causing some to open doors & bail Those mailing in their resignation are sure to find themselves opposite of the desired destination & stuck with new yet difficult beginnings Being too concerned with winning only leads to loss as it can lead you off of the path of ascending
