Flip Or Flop

I will become nothing and you will become everything 
you may be right, you may be wrong
is it you or is it me?
in the palm of my hands and in the palm of your hands
who's destiny is it?
is it mine or is it yours?
a man's destiny lies within himself, not within another
so my brother, be free at last go on walking in your own path

Thanks for sharing this... exposing your thoughts through your unique poetic style. Meanwhile, I greet you with the love of the Lord, expressed by John 3:16 of the Bible, "For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life." Be blessed.
