All of Life

Fickle findings fold and fade
Amidst the atmosphere 
Capricious candor carries well 
Expounding existential fear

Death dwells not on drib details
Willfully wonderstruck and wild
Intending to ingest infinity  
Til time and truth are not defiled

Harken to hearts harrowed and hard
Aggrieved arteries do acclimate 
Lonely, lost, or languishing 
Lessons learned letting love asphyxiate 

Onus overhangs opportunity 
Fickle findings fade and fold 
Like lessons lost to life never lived
Instead, ignite interminable cold
Flames form futures forgotten now
Eternity expounding til I emerge old
