Another bridge travesed
Another path left behind
The choices that we drag behind
Are chains around our feet
The undertow pulls us further underneath
Overwhelming vigorously
To smother with its blistering cold
And entomb us in its grip
As the clouds can lift us up
To see the glimmering stars
And pull with us our highest hopes
To touch the sky
And breathe crisp air
If the cards all fall in place
Force your hand or lay it down
The future starts post-haste |
