Inscrutable

Ever-turning

Decisions

vital..

Fall with style

and stay the fears

Or pile 'em up higher..

What binds a human?

The people encountered.

Chances missed --

destiny quenched into bloom

or perished --

Some things weigh on us

in ways a backpack don't

Infinite potential..

To become a saint

or fallen wight

A soul hurt and bleeding

or radiant with light
