The Last Mile

They say heavens a mile away

A journey that'll take more than a day

More than a calender year , more than a decade

I repeat but with much dismay 

Everybody want to go to heaven but fear their own ill fate

A question outlived threw the ages, 

but only answered when its to late

"What is the meaning of life? What is the purpose ?"

Perhaps a test upon ourselves to equivalate

I render myself humble , yet am I met with stones

thrown by shadows of gools and goons 

Laughter consumes the air , faint whispers battle threw

to reach my core , 

As if to designated to explode upon contact with my soul

I've been met at a crossroad

Heavy hands seem useless when one carries the stress of a globe

Legs stagger for balance , no time to question you must move as a whole

Mind , Spirit , and Physical form

Fall not to temptation and stroll threw the valley of death as 1 man alone

The same you were born the same you shall go

Only lying in your path is the opportunity to grow...
