Untitled

I've taken long journeys in dark places
Where the Devil dare not tread
    I've shaken hands warmly
With the taloned hand of Death
     I've wisely weathered ticking Years
Placed before me by Father Time
    I've cautiously befriended who I am
So I can recognize all my Pain
    I'm the Vessel of all that isn't 
And all that shouldn't be
    I've realized the Ability in my
Strength Integrity and Determination 
    I've become  wizened Veteren of Travel
In places the Devil dare not tread
