"The path to greatness is paved by the corpses of our former selves. Release the past, let the shadows of yourself die. Valor is just beyond the thin wall of self-doubt."
by Stardust and Gunsmoke
A preponderance
for desolance
undecided between
immolation and growth
like a lance to the heart
amidst a dark dance, seeking
my heart the vain man
doth not seek
what the wearied
man know himself to be
can a lance
to the heart
weather strain to the wearied soul?
