Longevity

Assemblage 23

I forgive your weakness

In light of all this bleakness

You were merely human

Destined to be ruined



Startled as your brevity

Turned to my longevity



I can't follow your steps

Can't go the places you went

I must forge my own path

Overcome and surpass



Startled as your brevity

Turned to my longevity



The more I see around me

The more it does to ground me

At peace with all my limits

Grateful for all I'm given



Startled as your brevity

Turned to my longevity
