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?

Light Far Distant


 



Light Far Distant


The more we gain,

the more we crave.

Life's currents surge

like swift rivers,

sweeping past

all that stands before us.

Without a thought,

we forsake the hidden life

dwelling within.

The more we run,

the farther we fall behind,

chasing horizons

that retreat with every step.

Our days revolve

within a shadowed land,

while a distant light

beckons beyond the dark.
