Offered

A world lay awash in fears, I resisted desperately
I'd pulled open the door for the future's destiny
Fate demanded that I take its hand but I refused
Watched as the storm approached, made a stand
Life is based upon hope and we've no promises
As I gaze into the star filled sky, and I'll choose
I'll take my journey, as far as I can understand
Alone I'll walk, with no help, no accomplices
I've no worries that life is a game that I'll lose
I know the cost, and refuse all demands
A mystery unknown, but I am offered alone
To take the path, to rise on my own
Fate is powerless, Destiny is my home
