This is a poem I wrote quite a long time ago, the idea came to me while I was playing Free Bird on Guitar Hero 2. Weird, I know, but eh. I've had weirder inspirations.

The Journey
By Walker Burgess

Tread slowly, child
Take it all in
Everything around you
For tomorrow, it may be gone

Tread lightly, young man
The road ahead
For it is long and heavy
Let not yourself weigh you down

Stand tall, brave lad
Above your enemies
For your land and your king
Your children's children will honor you

Young mercenary, wild and free
Let none control your spirit
For only you can
However, one should not contain such beauty

Days to months, months to years
Time slowly fades away
As do you and your loved ones
You've forgotten the wisdom of beginning

Tread softly, old man
The Journey is almost over
Be calm, wave your worries goodbye
Soon, God will welcome you

Angel whispers in the breeze
In the grass, in the trees
In all this time, it's come and gone
As swiftly as the rising dawn

Not young nor old can ever grasp it
It leaves us far behind
For it is beyond the comprehension
Of human body and mind

So take this with you, my old friend
Whatever path you take:
The way you live your life - The Journey -
There is no right or wrong
You will be proud of your choices
In life and far beyond
Anger is my friend, Rage my power.
