Ironic Dread of Deadlines

To cross the threshold untold
in times of satiated pain
choices and selves unavoidable
share responsibilities to cope
take hold of all the souls we love

Change as weather
rocks slowly strip away
heart of stone harder
radical temperature change
shattered in rising and setting of the sun

solution elusive
history romanticised
invasive political species
telling stories relaying
truths that look different
each time perceived
trodden down
get out of bed
love the ones chosen
to travel in caravan
and take a rest
down by the shore
a little breath
until joining the family
once more
hit the road
fulfill deadlines
and uncover the truth
the dread of life present
and worn
weathered for all of time
until the end of time.
