One step ahead,
and two step back,
I keep moving ahead,
Life keeps pushing me back.
I'm the warrior,
Fate,my opponent,
I aim for light,
It drowns me to the shadows.
I reject its offerings,
It denies my wishes,
I question its existance,
It questions me back.
It amazes me to realize,
how similar we are.
Me with my determination,
Fate with its stubbornness.
It might not gain me joys,
but, I refuse to entertain sorrows.
If fate is adamant,
I'm not a quitter.
But, in a war....
only one can win.
If it never gives in,
It has to face me until my end.
