Destiny's Lullaby


Under never-ending starry skies

And basking in the winds of change

A lullaby sings out to the world

One that beckons me as I race with the stars

All my life twirled around me as fate's shadow surrounds me

Every star in the sky, every memory in my mind

But destiny's light shines through it all

My mind's burdens becoming erased and cleared

For every burden was an untold story

Ones that filled my mind with anxiety and calamity

But destiny calls out ever louder,

Her voice like a silk scarf on my neck

As her lullaby rings, calling me to my fate

A sweet melody tempting me into her warm gaze

And as inevitable as fate, her light and song lulled me

Wrapped in brilliance, her melody rings

Lulling my mind into a blur of memories and emotions

But as the stars fade, as will pain

Fighting my past, and escaping my terrors

Under the stars, as they keep me company

Destiny's lullaby forever ringing in my ears

Even under the stars, sound asleep

Her voice will always echo through my mind
