Once, on a day much like this one, where the sun seemed unsure of its presence, there was a cottage by the edge of an eternal forest. Shadows stretched longer back then.
Memories fluttered like moths around an oil lamp, seeking warmth yet ever meeting the cool resistance of glass.
Time folded over itself, patterns unwinding. Within, I found letters written in a script unfamiliar, speaking of a life beneath the star-kissed sky, where twilight lingered longer.
The gentle rustle of a leaf, perhaps a whisper from an ancient soul, a reminder of moments forgotten but not vanished.
The veils, they revealed not only what lay beyond but what lay within. A reflection amidst the mist, a doorway to another existence, where past and future danced on the same note.
Yet still, amidst this gentle chaos, arises a truth unspoken: that the paths walked alone are merely preludes to that day’s conclusion, where solitary echoes drift and collide.
Can one traverse the echoes of these veils, uncovering what the winds carry away in whispered breaths?
Step softly, lest you awaken the forgotten tides.
Somewhere, a bell tolls not for time past, but time reborn. To sit in the quietude of one's own thoughts is to dismantle the layers unseen, to become, once more, one with that which is hidden.
Discover the stillness, beyond the languid veil.
