The Clock Strikes

Emperor

Every step I took, a path distant stretched 

Pockets overflowed, still more I fetched

The distance remained and I kept walking 

The chase was thrilling, so I kept stalking 

A name to earn or to be overjoyed 

Desire love or wealth until you're cloyed 

The sick will plunder, so know the cure

A mind that is calm, a heart pure

The clock strikes, now caught surprised

And all that's left is a man unsure
