By and by—
in each stride I take
with both my feet
down the road
to my destinyBy and by—
people come only to go
to leave me alone
with my dark
destructive thoughtsBy and by—
the sky stretches
every time I come close
to reaching and claiming
the light from the starsBy and by—
my fingers brush
the clouds but I
never really grasped
what I wanted more ofBy and by—
in each task, I toil
with both my hands
under the sun
to my endBy and by—
people come and go
to leave memories
that stay and hurt
to remember foreverBy and by—
I believe that I
am a lowly being
every time I see
someone ahead of meBy and by—
I have come to realize
that fate exists
to never give us
what we hope for
