~ Oblivion… ~

–The Womb That Refuses Silence

I inscribe her unforgivable sins

into a ledger that does not forget

And then-

against my own verdict-

I acquit them

one by one…

Perhaps she too

conducts such silent trials

in the sealed chambers of her being

But let us not deceive ourselves-

Oblivion is no refuge

it is a womb

unyielding, impenetrable

where the dead are not buried-

only rewritten

where every silenced memory

learns to breathe again

returns with a pulse sharpened by absence

and stands before you

not asking to be remembered-

but refusing

to be erased…!
