Hadrian Veska May 2016
I laid down to sleep
And dreamed awake
Imagining beyond life
What form I might take

What joy I might have
In the freeing of my soul
What peace within
Once I'm made whole

But for others too
Did my dreaming mind turn
So I wandred the heavens
Hoping to learn

Whether the world I knew
Was worth the sorrow
Whether I made a difference
In someone's tomorrow

And in my travels
Did I met a great truth
That we must live for each other
Both in age and in youth

It does not matter
In life who you are
Whether you're rich or poor
From near or afar

What matters is the heart
Faith and hope from above
And the greatest gift of all
Is the thing we call love
When we first met, he was caring and sweet.
I thought he was the best, a woman could ever meet.

The first years were great, and I feelt so loved.
But his love turned to hate, and my mind wandred of.

I blamed myself for it all, but he blamed me more.
And in the nights he would prowl, with the weapons he bore.

He tore me apart, and he branded my skin.
But when he broke my heart, my hatred would set in.

I hated him so much, but he hated me more.
And the thought of his touch, made my brain feel sore.

The really bad touching, felt so normal so fast.
So in my mind i was clutching, onto things from the past.

He made a big mistake, by never hidding his gun.
He thought I'd easilly break, and then he would've won.

But one can only live years, before comming to a point.
Where you ignore all your fears, and just get the job done.

So I picked up his knife, the rusty one from the sheed.
And I ended his life, and laughed while he bleed.

And when it was over, and I was satisfied,
I picked up his revolver, and ended my own life.

— The End —
