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?

Beneath the Sands of Time


 Beneath the Sands of Time

How much of the unknown

has stepped into the light,

while mysteries still sleep

beneath the turning of Time?

What is now a desert

may once have cradled an ocean,

where strange creatures wandered

beneath forgotten skies.

Waves have yielded to winds,

and living forms to fossils—

silent chronicles of life

sealed within the Earth's ancient pages.

Continents shift, mountains crumble,

and climates rewrite the world;

yet beneath the shifting sands,

forgotten ages lie awake.

Time buries and reveals,

transforms and recreates.

What humanity forgets,

the Earth remembers.
