The Silence Beyond Eden

The Silence Beyond Eden  The sky, dust-laden, wears the stains of ash, while restless souls gather pearls of eternity, yet their hunger remains unsatiated. Frontiers bleed, dreams crumble into ruins, and nameless children inherit an unknown Eden's ashes. Once, your footsteps consecrated the earth, your breath sanctified the wandering winds. Now, iron and fire dictate the fate of spring. Who taught the flowers to fear their blossoming? Perhaps the giants still play their ancient game, moving kingdoms across the chessboard of the earth, while pawns of flesh and blood vanish beneath their shadows. And you remain silent, beyond the ruins of paradise. Is your silence the final mystery of creation, or the permission through which the giants reign?

Her Unfathomed Frame

 

Her Unfathomed Frame

We forge the frame, yet cannot fathom

the mind’s bent alloy—as if it could be reshaped.

Beneath a veil of natural tenderness,

her thoughts bolt like a fickle pony.

Her soft, melodious mirth

cascades to entrap the feelings

that oscillate in a desert heart—

yet the bloom is never lasting.

Harsh reality coils at her core,

the cold axis around which she revolves

her whole scheduled age.
