Silentium

—Unspoken Genesis—

                                                  Silence ere primal flame was born
                                                               Veiled lucent might
                                                  Silence outlives the blast of scorn
                                                              And crowns the night

                                                                Dim stars appear
                                                           Clear paths draw near
                                                             Soft spheres cohere

                                                  Till mortal thought forgets its name
                                                    Silence before the birth of flame
