Summary:
...sometimes in life things go unsaid, and after that moment when we are prompted to speak now or forever hold our thought/s in silence, it begins.

Zwijgen Voor Altijd

Within these walls,
memory claws again—
talons once raked
through tender skin.
The bars still hold
their verdict tight.

The sound of boots
in narrow halls
marks a rhythm
too sharp to forget.
Each strike recalls
the sentence spoken.

Two figures bend low,
eyes narrowed,
searching shadows
for a place to breathe.
Their names unspoken,
their silence shared.

Night grants a pause,
a fragile cover.
Yet even sleep
cannot hold its tongue:
dreams spill
what waking lips conceal.
The silence cracks,
then seals again.

Beneath stone,
a chamber waits.
No cipher speaks—
only the sentence
of lifelong silence.
