Echoes in the Arena
by bernt & torsten
In the heart of the gathering, beyond the mundane,
We seek that surge, a thrill amidst the blur,
An unscripted drama where joys entwine with pain,
A place where emotions breathe unchained, astir.
Amidst the echoes, our spirits rise and fall,
Exhilaration dances with shadows of doubt,
We chase the elation, heed the siren's call,
For in that moment, fervour finds its route.
In this grand theatre, a legacy we carve,
Footprints of triumph on unconventional trails,
In memories whispered our stories starve,
Defying the mundane, where convention pales.
Nature's ironies cradle our desire,
A longing unquenched, in pursuit we strive,
Yet hold dear the ephemera of hearts afire,
In transient treasures, we truly thrive.
Amongst the skeptics with rain-tinted sight,
Even in victory, their gloom prevails,
We share the bounty, double the light,
In life's paradox, our spirit sails.
So cherish the game, this theatre of dreams,
Where laughter and tears weave their intricate seams.
