Cursed In The Past

One time he did not know the tales ahead, the war awaitingHis eyes were full of life and his thirsty heart felt only yearningHe walked home through the forest, wasn't aware of losing it allthat all he cherished and stood for were to be soon behind....And so it rose the seventh moon and silent was the landthen wardrums echoed far from villages out of sightAnd so bright was his sword that sought its voice, waiting for battlethe great war that would seal his fate and slay his dreamsAnd so there was the battle, moon descended and rose againTrees were burning next to him but still he did not feel the heatHis sword laid on the ground as he walked towards the flames..And so daylight struck the land not so silent anymoreThe wardrums pounding rose in villages, in the nightAnd there lied his blood-stained blade with body all covered in bloodThe signs of battle that sealed his fate, vanquished his soul..”Swallow your defeat and walk among the starsWander through the altar of past, there you shall witness it allBut don't fall into memories, you can't have them backOut of sight, out of mind they sayStill forgetting cannot prevent that which must be..A Stain in your mind you can't wash away….”There he stood unknowing where the path would leadHe didn't grieve as he sat upon his graveThe familiar face crying kneeled next to himHe realised this land was his no more....Once it rose the seventh moon and silent was the landScreams still echo far from villages out of sightAnd so cruel were his deeds in battle once upon a timeIn battle that did seal his fate and slew his dreams
