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?

Let the dead rest


 
Let the Dead Rest

Let the dead rest either
Countless unfinished dreams
will rise and unveil
the plot behind the play—
a script written only
for murder,
conceived by minds
plagued with paranoia
and poisoned by skepticism,
vices too often embraced
by brutish hearts.
Let the dead rest and
Let them lie in deep sleep,
finding at last
respite from pain,
the scars of bullets,
and the burdens
they carried through life.
Don't dig the graves
to expose the hollowness
of the creed
they once held close
within their hearts.
