Unmei
An illusion etched in stone
passed on upon generations
a clot for the bleeding heart
to soothe the pain
so it hurts a little
a record of things then,now and later
reincarnation of cycles
life certainty of the uncertain
so it happened, when it was new
put a test to her waters
a bold dare,to fetch from her seas
challenge her storm, like a brave sailor
fighting her tidal battle
feast on your victories
sob on your loses
she cares not, does she?
only time complete her cycles
if there was ever one
believe what you will
the day ends when the night comes
whether true or not
the night comes for us all
