Etchings of life

Adorn the stars

The realm of Ancients

The lands of afar

My travels have made me

Estranged and weary

As I came

To observe decay

The temples once raised

Now they lie in ruins

And all that once prospered

Dissolves in plain sight

The battles

Once fought by mortals forlorn

Can’t rest in oblivion

Still thirst for the blood

I watched the decadence

Through cosmic eyes

Now I traverse from this crossroad

To the eternal lands

There is the light

Where they once lay to die

Reaching the hall

The ancestral abode

Deep in the akashic field

The grand past I’ll see retrieved

As the fathers burn and pass

Through the pyres to eternity
