Losing an illusion makes you wiser than finding a truth...

We march, mindless of each step embedded on this boundless shore
stampeding forevermore unto beacons, all accounted for.
Scriptures and allegorys accost this process in blue moons,
while the forces of such events ruffle tides that consume... you.
You, that is composite of past events you have witnessed
and have manifested on sandy lands most accurately as indents.
Those fall behind now, the beacon, the light source lays ahead.
The horizon. The achievement. Full circle; reaching an end.

Sourcing from the towers peak, tears race down the frame
collecting at the base, creating the great sea of dismay.
The scene seen from the beacons peak encaptures each treck
that's every movement from the birth of man till finally, death.
Each step reminiscent of blissful grit on the toes,
how far a stretch of land this beaches sandy shore line goes.
For when the veil is pulled in the face of our pitiful fate,
It's safe to say the knowledge comes in just a little too late.
