To do unto you

To do unto you, to follow the path
to achieve greatness a gem of the past.
To tempt such a fate as never before seen.
A prize of a life from afar is sought. The
quest is great but the courage is greater.
By the afternoon sun shining over your head.
The Guide of Peace to follow.
Alone in your travels is alone in your mind.
To seek what others have sought. To gain
what others have lost. Peace is but no more.
History is gone, but you still remain. In
one place for all of time. The forgotten life
you once lived. The love they shattered.
Lost in the arch of time. To find but
never to see. To touch. To feel. Lost in
the vastness of your mind. Trust has
gone, leaving empty promises of tomorrow
that never shall come. Never told of the
lies and decite. Forever innocent. Forever
naive. Hidden from the life of others you
want. Never to be. To justify the pain
you shrivel and hide. From the truth
never told.
To do unto you to follow the path
to achieve greatness a gem of the past.
