Invictus

Beyond this place of wrath and tears
Looms but the horror of the shade
And yet the menace of the years
Finds and shall find me unafraid

It matters not how strait the gate
How charged with punishments the scroll
I am the master of my fate
I am the captain of my soul

This poem I heard for the first time in the movie Invictus, amazing poem- the movie was okay but mostly I love these words.
