Destiny 11-12-85
Before ever there was time
before there was the heavens
and the stars gave their light
or the glimmerings of life
was it determined
to be a gift ?
this love to be stained with pain
was this the choice of our will
or the curse of destiny
that as in birth
the threads of life forces meeting
struggle to become one
What indeed is that strange entity
that forces me to inspect
and desire to join forces with you
oh man, of my desire
Compared to the splendor
of the celestial bodies
or the beauty of our own terra firma
I wonder at it in awe
with this respect so terrible
wonder what , if anything
you could find in my soul
that you should desire to call me good
or my fear that passion for life
should overcome me
with you as its inclined
and only to find myself
as dust under your feet
that before there was law
there was hope
from which the sources
of love do spring
I have hope , laced with fear
and walk upon a land unknown
a chance to walk amoung the stars
or cast down heart to burn
the only hell I know
I want to understand
this awesome majesty
to explore this unknown rejoin
with one like myself
to join hand in hand
mind to mind
heart to heart
