Leap


The well guarded keep is kept locked tight at the behest of a universe, quite in jest as the muse she does profess to always be mindful of those round for their ways you make your own so in the center of this storm we must decide which side we're on on the shoulders or the giant we must follow or stand defiant the laughing heart does proclaim ignorance is the source of pain and the cure just the same and since we all are but players in this game we must gather resources and craft anew world, for lovers true for this life is but a test so bear no shame to ever confess that we instigate one anothers' fate so let us stride, boldly, to the gate no more regrets for could-have-beens in this time we will create what is rightfully yours and mine. amusing and confusing, the signs are always there the universe nods and winks, if you catch the stare so we brazenly leap, climbing higher and higher drawn by the smoke, there must be fire but act so surprised when we find what's been sought a tyrant ruler is, this contortion of thought construed but underused, a mystical meaning awakened at last, an explosion of feeling like electricity it spreads, revitalizing the dead we rise from the depths, with new thoughts in our heads to discuss and make great, fears unabated a yearning we've felt, but never quite sated so we flee to the unknown and stand there as one content in our conquest, for we can never be done because adventure never rests, so neither shall we we put our lives to the test to live forever free
