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?

Beyond the Walls of Silence


 Beyond the Walls of Silence

Treated as flowers,

they are plucked before their time,

their hidden nectar drained

by unseen hands—

age after age,

generation after generation.

They swallow their anguish,

their lips sealed against protest,

learning to survive

in the narrow dens

society has built for them.

Beyond the threshold of light,

they dwell in inherited darkness,

where even the bread of life

is divided unequally,

and duty becomes the chain

that binds their dreams.

Their talents lie buried,

their wings remain folded,

their footsteps restrained

by invisible walls.

Under the weight of domination,

they count their allotted days

beneath the same vast sky.

Yet something stirs

within their captive minds—

a restless wind,

a silent rebellion,

a longing to tear apart

the net that holds them captive.

The river does not wait

for permission to flow;

it carves its passage

through the stubborn earth.

So, too, feminism rises,

lifting its hood against injustice,

its voice demanding

what should never have been denied.

Still, the road stretches far,

and the horizon remains distant.

How many dawns must break

before every flower

can bloom in freedom?
