Fate

Fate, oh how you govern our lives, 

The unseen force that often thrives, 

A mystery we can never escape, 

A path we must walk, shape and drape.

 

You lead us down roads both dark and light, 

Guiding us through the day and night, 

From birth until the very end, 

You are the one we cannot bend.

 

We try to control our destiny, 

To create a life that's truly free, 

But fate has plans of its own, 

A future we cannot postpone.

 

Sometimes we curse your heavy hand, 

When things don't go as we have planned, 

But perhaps it's for the best, 

That fate put us to the test.

 

For in the struggles we face each day, 

We learn and grow in our own way, 

We find strength we never knew we had, 

And become the person we're meant to be, not sad.

 

So let us embrace the twists and turns, 

And all the lessons that we learn, 

For fate is a journey we must take, 

And in the end, it's the choices we make.
