now it hurts

We pass through fire, through time and fear,
The test of fate brings no one near,
Affection fails, discernment stays,
We learn to love in stranger ways.
Intelligence finds friends in few,
Chance will hand the rest to you.
But a man is judged by those who stay,
The wise walk north, the fools decay.

Graduates of fortune,
Matriculated souls,
Learning through the silence,
Where the dark wind rolls.
Graduates of fortune,
With hearts that never sleep,
Friendship is a mirror,
And mirrors run deep.

Pleasure’s mask, the sweetest guise,
The liar’s warmth, the friend’s disguise,
We dance with trust, we flirt with doubt,
Some stay within, most fade out.
Legitimate in thought or sin,
Some for ideas, some to win,
Few are friends of who we are,
Most are drawn to what we wear.

Graduates of fortune,
Walking hand in hand,
Students of the moment,
Lost in shifting sand.
Graduates of fortune,
No lesson comes for free,
A wise friend guards the doorway,
A fool invites the sea.

Graduates of fortune,
Degrees in circumstance,
Bound by fleeting wisdom,
And accidental chance.
Graduates of fortune,
Our lessons never end,
You lose yourself in fortune,
Before you find a friend.
