The Shadows Path

The sun hovers just above the horizon

Casting shadows where they never were before

A shaded path is formed showing the way toward destinies door

The sun, ever setting, stopping not, in spite of prayer

Enveloped in shadow as the light of day sets its snare

The shadow grows ever darker; the snare’s springs are set

Destiny approaches, unabated, unaware of the inevitable threat

Through the door of the inevitable journey, the sun no longer can be seen

The snare, the threat, through destinies door, is now so serene
