Immortality

Over so many years Sprang so many fears Creating so many tears And pain to surpass my peers Growing an aching burn For a desire to yearn Which is overhead Yet over my grasp, broken once I learn Captured in my soul, with my mind's eye Where my dreams dwell, sprouting high Alluding to a time not unforeseen, hidden in the sky Fortune favors the brave, don't be shy The prints from my past mistakes left Marking their trace, having carved depth Between the walls of my spirit in my breast Nestled where my dearest secrets are kept Eternal echoes haunting my mind Each step I take, looking for happiness to find Missing out on now, feeling behind Driving the force to take on the grind From this day, never forget my word A slit in the abyss of forever to be hear
