Destiny

 Astra inclinant, sed non obligant

The stars, incline but not our wills bent

Destiny shows the way, not the journey

The path always has branches to set you free

Destiny shows the rose, the thorns pierce too

It ascends the way, does not bind us through.

Destiny, a mellifluous sound that leads to fate

But it’s up to you to choose the way, the road, the date

Destiny they say, is as wise as their beard

Destiny they say has so many lives sheared

But did they really snip the strings, or did we tear?

Did they really put loads on our backs we didn’t ask to bear?

Did they really not tell us about the dangers ahead?

Did they really not allow the words that were said?

Destiny ameliorates forever, they only show 

Destiny leads in front, it’s up to us to follow

Take umbrage with the journey, don’t be shy

Alis Propiis Volat, the wings are yours to fly.
