Decisions are made the moment pen touches paper
Going miles deep to caverns away from the light
Your will can move mountains and sky scrapers
Dare to jump off one, you might just achieve flight

"Come yonder", said the voice from within the mist
Trees were felled, mountains levelled by man's might
"Secrets are now revealed..", is what it said in a gist
The light from within, now shines bright

Letter on letter, word on word
Fails to describe a wandering mind's plight
The light from within glistens on a sword
One that's been bloodied in a gruesome fight

Rationalise life to end misery's onslaught
From the high horse, it's time to alight
Nature can be conquered, so can famine and draught
There will be time for action, but for now let us be quiet
