I Write My Own Destiny
The midnight sun is out again
The earth below baths in her soft light
The wind brings echoes of a timeless melody
Ancestral music to my heart.
Each star has a story to tell in their gleaming light
A story is told for you, and a story is told for me
Nothing else needs to be said
But if you must, write your thoughts down.
Words unlock the gates of my reserved soul
If you’re patient enough, you can catch a glimpse
Of who I was, who I am, and who I’ll become
Do you dare to venture further?
I often delve within myself
To better understand my purpose
This is what’s imprinted on my essence
“I write my own destiny.”

I enjoy writing in the declarative sometimes, I think this has a contemplative mien, nice use of scene descriptors to build the ambience.
