Destiny is not the way

Just the end of the road

And at every corner and junction

Sits fate, awaiting us.



What direction will we take?

Is there a sideway to let us turn off?

And everywhere we go

Fate sits and smiles



The smile is not always pleasant

Fate is a shrewd old hag

She can take away so much

And give so little in return



On other days she's generous

She gives us all we crave

Only in a change of mood

To take it all away



Fate is the one who bends the road

No matter where we go

So whatever our intention my be

We arrive at the destined goal



Fate will not be cheated

For that she deals out punishment

It makes the road just longer and harder

And you do what you have to do in the end.

She's a will o' wisp

she's a vixen

a seductress..


She's all knowing

she's an innocent

a mentor..


She's inside you...

loving your journey.
