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?

Lost World


 Short Introduction:-

Lost World reflects on the vanished civilizations that once flourished across the globe. Inspired by ancient cultures whose achievements survive in ruins, inscriptions, and myths, the poem explores how the legacy of the past continues to influence the present.

Lost World

They vanished from this earth,
Leaving behind the imprint
Of their rich yet
Mysterious lives—
Their dwellings buried
Beneath the dust of ages,
Their stories waiting
To be unveiled.
The echoes of their wisdom
Still linger
In weathered stones,
Forgotten scripts,
And silent monuments
That defy oblivion.
They departed,
Leaving behind
Their artifacts
And the enduring essence
Of their existence.
Their hidden legacy,
Flowing through the currents
Of time,
Continues to shape
And safeguard humanity.

Brief Interpretation:-

The poem portrays lost civilizations as enduring presences rather than extinct societies. Though their cities may have fallen and their voices faded, their knowledge, creativity, and cultural achievements remain woven into human history. The poem suggests that humanity's future is enriched and guided by the wisdom inherited from these forgotten worlds.
