Higher Than Fate

sing-song writing I guess.

I can feel the night decaying
it's choking me so tight
my dreams trickle from me ears in
scarlet stars on my pillow white
outside the real ones are singing
galaxy prophets calling me
they've put my fate up in cold writing
for the whole damn world to see

there's no cloud in sight and I'm waiting
for stars dim and curtain fall
death to the kings above me
craving re-death to them all
because I know that what they're spelling
in Heaven for me is eternal Hell
but the stars have lead me wrong before
and now they've undermined my will.

Author's Note

sometimes I get mad at the idea of fate, that my future is already planned out for me. Do I not have a will? But sometimes I really want to believe in fate, bacause it would make my worries just that much lighter.

Very good! "And now they've undermined my will" my favorite line. You be who YOU want to be, you live YOUR life, and live it the best you can. The Author is with you always.

I often think the same and can get fustrating knowing we cant know for certain...
but I do believe in fate, and a free will :)
Sounds contradictory but works for me...

anyways loved the topic and poem :)

the power and strength of will in this is truly inspiring!
I think... That fate does not control us, not nearly.. I believe fate allows us to be faced with choices, as in... "fate" brings a cute guy into your life, an brings opportunity of being more than friends. but it's your choice whether your will be or not.. you know:) lol just my offered opinion:P Grrreat write as always! my talented and wise Cap'n:)
