Are we cosmic brothers
in starlit seas afloat?
Destiny's grip smothers
another outcome's throat,
and leaves one survivor
without a pause to gloat
at the broken striver.
For all our thwarted dreams
(like a shallow diver)
a single hope now gleams:
Redemption might be real
in time, as joining streams
from other springs ideal
run their raging courses
and roar their great appeal.
From deceptively random sources
the riverbed is fixed by forces.

A diciotto for ProjectDFC. This one took me a while to figure out; trying to apply terza rima to a weird syllabic pattern made it difficult. I really had no idea what to write about until AyeAye12 gave me a perfect 6 syllable line to start with. You can see the conversation that led to that line here: comments.deviantart.com/4/2297…
