Defying The Present To Embrace The Future

The allure

For defying the present

By all means

Bears a weight of pressure

Indescribable in nature

To control a free-willed fate

In favor of the immediate existent elements

Set before me to embrace

The pace for tackling the current matters at hand

Is stagnant

Yet time is descending

Before my eyes can see

A compromise within me

Needs to be satisfied

Dismissing proposed evanescent promises

Floating in the clouds

Of a mirrored past

Bound with tribulation

Leaves the door for speculation

To remain wide open

Yet remaining humbled and wanting more

Lucrative chances for gaining

A bigger slice of life's metaphysical pie

Is the undeniable reason why I

Strive to Defy The Present To Embrace The Future

I really like how you made the last line stand out as it's similar to the title. Interesting write that can get a reader thinking.
