A long white hall
doors on both sides
the worry on your mind
a smile does hide
a woman stands beside you
beauty beyond compare
pointing to three doors she says
"Utopia, Life, Despair"
Each one has a window
you step up close to see
utopia is as it should be
filled with things you love
friendly faces, open spaces
and all your favorite toys
you step two down
over to Despair
A shriek escapes your lips
all the demons hell could summon
mocked you from within
torture anguish pain and sorrow
stumbling back you look to her
ask her "What's your name?"
"Fate" she says with a small smile
"Its time for you to choose.
I take over after this
so choose the right one for you."
You look into Life
it's cloudy and foggy
through the dark you can see
a balance of utopia and despair
"If I choose Utopia, what will I be"
"You'll help those people
just like me."
"And despair?" you ask of her
"You'll be the voice
the voice that lives in the back of their mind
'not good enough' you'll say
'you'll never make it that way'
That's what you shall do."
with a deep sigh you open Life
walk bravely inside
Fate bids you farewell and closes the door
now so must later in life
you can't remember this thing
but you know that Fate has her ways
and she'll make it alright in the end
if you were like me, and knew how it went
you'd look at life like a kaliedoscope
and each speck of color
is a speck of Utopia or Despair
all twirling around to make it seem right
with fate as the mirrors
holding it all together
ah yes...lovely thing i think
