A Villanelle - An Etude Of Life

Move on with the scars; move on with the past.
Scars do not define, they teach to refine.
What is the future? We will always ask.

Great dreams were broken, outside they were cast.
Words of the pessimist we must decline.
Move on with the scars; move on with the past.

They lost sight of their dreams, said mine wouldn't last.
"When will the path I travel become mine?"
What is the future? We will always ask.

Why do the patient ones finish the last?
Lacking the strength to challenge the incline.
Move on with the scars; move on with the past.

How many beings in this world so vast?
Of wonders and magick there seems so sign.
What is the future? We will always ask.

Denounce destiny; fate and chance, lambast.
To be remembered, unique, ne’er defined.
Move on with the scars; move on with the past.
What is the future? We will always ask.
