“Decay of Sinners contrasting with the peaceful silence of Christ” – photo generated by Nova using my vision of thought

In forgotten places,

where sinners fall apart,

the murmurs of their pleasures

break like old stones.

The silence of Christ,

calm and eerie,

fills the emptiness,

heavy on the soul,

a mysterious silence.

Time stays thick here,

filled with whispers of old sins

and shadows of regrets

in the dim light,

fragile and fading.

Each sinner’s breath,

a silent cry,

a confession lost to the wind,

the abyss opens wide,

longing for forgiveness.

The decay is not ugly but beautiful,

ruins speak with ghostly voices,

every crack tells a story,

every break sings a song.

Christ’s silence,

not gone, but deep,

a strange quiet,

heavy with absence,

a holy mystery.

In this sacred decay,

Beauty is born,

darkness mingles with light,

each piece,

part of a divine picture.

The sinners decay,

the silence stays,

an endless embrace,

balanced between hope and fear.

In the silent voices of my heart, I walk alone, where shadows weep and dreams lay shattered, like remnants of a storm long past.
