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?

New Epic





 New Epic

If those ancient days

were to live again,

when God walked near

His children as their guide,

an epic would be written

once more,

to steer the chariot

of Time

according to the Lord's will.

The air would grow dusty,

and the sun would hang hazy

in the sky.

The incessant play

of loss and victory

would continue

amid the ruins

of the world.

Yet the presence of God

would bring a solace

capable of cooling

the hearts of all.
