Eternal Vigil
Reflection
In the chamber of shadows, where time whispers soft,
A statue stands, a sentinel of stone,
Its gaze unyielding, a beacon of old,
Guarding secrets that the ages have sown.
The candles burn, their golden light a dance,
A ritual of fire, a sacred flame,
Guiding the soul through the labyrinth of thought,
Where memory and truth entwine in a name.
The red curtain, a veil of mystery,
Shrouds the room in hues of passion and grace,
While the white marble, pure and chaste,
Holds the essence of eternity in its embrace.
The figure, a man of purpose and might,
Holds a staff, a symbol of duty and care,
A guardian of the sacred, the unseen,
A testament to the enduring human spirit's rare.
In this still life, a world of meaning unfolds,
A tapestry of symbols, rich and profound,
Each element a thread in the fabric of time,
A story of vigilance, faith, and the divine.
For in the quiet of this sacred space,
We find ourselves, our own eternal vigil,
A journey of reflection, a path of grace,
Where the past and present intertwine,
And the soul, in its quiet, finds its place.
