Exiles Journey

A brutal banishment
A condemnation unfeeling
Compels me to wander
In dreadful isolation
Why?
Why must I leave behind all that once was mine?
Ahead lies only an eternity of vacuum
No life awaits here amongst the forlorn soils of the Malediction Fields
A people lost
A tribe without spirit tethered to a land that no longer remembers
Trapped within valleys that scream without mercy
Prayers to a long-dead body go unheeded and unheard

The ghostly cries of the abandoned carve ruin into the very fabric of my senses
Yet my back is turned
My heart stone
There will be no return for one such as I
For I am but a man
Fassible yet free
Purity and principles scattered to the harsh winds
Stoic beneath waning skies swollen with the promises of pain
Descending spirals of a withering storm-scape
Echoing the chaos that roils within the fragile stem of the Earth

A brutal banishment
A condemnation unfeeling
Compels me to wander
In dreadful isolation
