Life lived

Just this once

Endless openings

May never obtain

Chance

To speak to her

Nor make her mine

If not accomplished sooner

In my life

She'll stand a goner

I'll never be able to

See her

Feel her

Embrace her

Again

Hidden off

All fronts

I must confront

Storm inside

Within brewing soul

Pain inside my chest

Stabbing concrete walls

Prisoner unleashed

New part

Of me

Reality halts me

I'll doubt

She wants me

Bring it up

To best brother

Life lived

Just this once

Within thread

Of bold steel

Caging me

Eternally

Until commence of

Fate aspires

Across this land

Variant speaks

Waiting kills

Continuations will rise

Inevitable

No river to sweep

Me away

No creek current

Strong enough to

Drag me under ice

No lake present

To drown my sorrows

No ocean

To carry her away

From me

Yet alone

Our struggles

Stricken across

Exploited heart

Life lived

Only ever once

Change inevitable

Chance rising

Against moon on the hillside.
