Within all conscious life, there dwells a force That can never be destroyed All creation must tread an unending course And this fate, no soul can avoid Descending to this troublesome Earth In bodies of varying forms Enduring each life, we continue rebirth Until as humans we are born From then on, we create our own destiny From the deeds we have done Battling against iniquity With virtue acting as our falchion Atonement complete, and lessons learnt,we bid farewell to this earthly hell To serve in heaven, where we rest our heads on beds of asphodel.Birth sign: Aquarius
