Hadrian Veska May 2019
Here we stand
At the edge of all things
A shell of who we once were
Scraped of all our secrets
Barren and exposed
To who we could become
Don't fight it but accept it
The voice holding you back
Is not one with your own
It is the last dying breath
Of your weaknesses and shame
Step forth into the light
For it is no longer blinding
And the path ahead
Has been at last made clear
Go now into that unknown
Knowing now nothing
Of your once foolish ways
Hadrian Veska May 2019
The Sea engulfed this place once
But spat it back out
None have returned here
In honor of those merciful gods
Who could so easily swallow us all
In the depths of dark waters
But not now, no not yet
In time however it is known
The world will return
As it was in the beginning
Back to darkness
Back to the Sea
Hadrian Veska Apr 2019
Do you recall
The way it was before the fall
When the world was new
And the stars shone bright
Two lights to govern the day and night
Beneath the heavens
In the East thus made
A paradise with gold inlaid
To be the throne
That would carry the crown
All creation before bow down
That is, that was
And again it will be
Despite the fruit of that ancient tree
The fallen one
And our since fallen state
Yet one will come to change that fate
So hold out hope
Dear child remain true
For the one who saves has also saved you
Hadrian Veska Apr 2019
How easily we forget
Build it up, but don't let it set
Better to give and then to get
Than it is to simply give

The tears we cry mean nothing now
Our promises and broken vows
We cross the stage and take our bow
Before any even know

We live our lives with so little love
Our peace in power not a dove
Our home is here and not above
Yet we treat each other wrong

It's a struggle we all know
To live, to learn, to laugh, to grow
On this place here down below
In the times that we all live

Yet there is hope there's always been
In a book that's long since penned
This fate we have won't be our end
No there's something more

I know all this to be true
God placed us beneath a sky so blue
In perfection just me and you
We were here on Earth

So in perfection made again
We won't float and fly with them
No, we'll walk on Earth as men
The crown upon the Earth

My friend this is your worth
Hadrian Veska Apr 2019
Love
Oh love
Do I know your name aright?
Can you bring me to the light?
I've been lost for so long
Weak but never strong
Can you take my hand and share
All your faith and care
For me despite my sins
How could I ever win
Without you and the me
I hope to one day be
Hadrian Veska Apr 2019
Above as us though such no more
Peering eyes through heaven's floor
To come to be what all might be
And in the end to finally see
The crumbling stone and rotten wood
The results of all we thought was good
That dark black tower of pride and hate
In the coming time the hour too late
Hadrian Veska Apr 2019
Three to come
And one to go
One to return
At end of snow
One to watch
To be a guide
One last to judge
All men in time
