Labyrinth

A destiny unfolds upon our arrival
Laying the foundation for the days to come
Building an intricate maze of our future
With many dark holes and a few rays of light

As we set forth on our journey
We ask and seek, toil and tumble
And we remember and regress,
To move forward with a brushed up soul

While it stares us in the eye,
Mocks our choices on the cornerstone,
Laughs at our plights and determination
It also burns fuels the flares which gives us the courage.

And this cycle of events refrains
Ultimately giving us the wisdom to understand
That we do not seek to surpass the labyrinth
But to endure its effect and brush up the soul
