Life is full
Of gain and losses;
Of open hearts
And broken promises.
We have no control
Over the path we take,
But we can step aside
For new paths to make.
Whether a God's from above
Or your own path you made,
You still don't know anything
If your path should fade.
For, you see, a shadow plays
At the end of each path
As it waits for souls
Filled with spiteful wrath.
It will tell you of power,
The one restless hunger.
It will tell you to follow,
Then leave you to wander...
But, alas, this is avoidable,
And it's easy to do:
Just love one another
And let others love you.
The light will then show,
And banish the bad.
You would feel very light,
And utterly glad!
this goes to show,
With reason to rejoice,
That, ultimately, you
Control the pathway of choice.
