Walking the paths of life

I walked so many darkened paths, that I have learned to fear

So many shadows flashed by me along the lonely streets

Is there a road I cannot find?

Is there a hill I wouldn't climb?

*

I learned to fear, I studied hope

Pursued both with a glee

And played the instruments of Life

In frightful Harmony

*

We face temptations

And regrets,

We grasp at chances,

We tempt Fate

*

Both, dear reader, Life and Death

Are common destiny of Man

The road is long and does not end

Till you fall off it or ascend.
