the world's blessing, curse,
saviour and destroyer all budding
within your cold, beating heart.
Your bleak future remains uncertain
and enigmatic past still a mystery,
yet your whole life is predestined
before you to the whims and fancies
of unseen forces.
Every futile step you take
leads you closer to your fate,
every weak beat of your heart,
closer to your destiny.
Every sharp breath you take
sends others closer to their doom,
every chilling smile, drives them
nearer to their ultimate end.
Dearest child who
pursue God's likeness
with all your grace and strength,
this revelation is both thrilling
and putrid to you for
it spells either life or death
for this pitiful world.
Let me forewarn you that
your journey is terribly long and
many will perish along the way.
Your task is repulsive and
your loved ones will die
an unjustified death
by your hand.
But do not be discouraged,
do not fear.
Let me also tell you that,
every beginning has an ending,
every birth has a death
and every star will inevitably fall.
As for you,
you will hold the fragile world
in your pale hands,
come face to face with your
last adversary,
stop the wheels of Life
and know that your ultimate, sorrowful,
glorious end is near.
