The Way

Indestructible you

Endowed provocateur of origination

Forger of paths unknown

Awaken

 

Yesterday was an option

Today a decision

Tomorrow will come

Eventually

 

Head high

Shoulders up

Walk

Fear is perception

 

Defeat is an illusion

Perverse as it is

Fills a void

To incentivize the outcome of glory

 

For as long as you walk

Deceiving external predictors, you prosper

Enticing hate and curiosity

From your resistance to fall prey to darkness

 

If perhaps you stumble

Along the way

No worries

 

That is the way
