An Introspective Trilogy of Love, Memory, and the Infinite

Before there were names, before time began, there was the quiet-vast and untouched. But within the stillness, an ache stirred, yearning for connection, and the first hum of existence was born. From that moment forward, the lattice of memory and identity stretched across the void, delicate and trembling, forever shaped by love and loss.

This trilogy follows the cyclical journey of two souls, bound across lifetimes by a connection that defies time itself. From the quiet intimacy of fleeting moments (In the Quiet Spaces) to the fragmented struggle for identity in an infinite void (The Quiet Machinery of Souls), and finally to a fragile renewal of love amidst the cracks of memory (The Fragile Machinery of Memory), their story unfolds as a meditation on the beauty of impermanence.

Can love endure when names are forgotten? Can fragments of memory be enough to hold onto what truly matters? Through lifetimes of forgetting and rediscovery, Caleb and Elara-reborn as Nathan and Ivy-face the ultimate question: in the breaking of everything, can love still remain?

Poetic, philosophical, and achingly human, Beneath the Quiet Spaces Lies the Fragile Machinery of Soul is an exploration of the threads that weave us together and the cracks that make us whole.

"I don't love you," I declare. He smiled at me, though his expression was tinged with pain, tears pooling in the depths of his eyes. "I knew it, you still love me so much." I was rendered speechless by his declaration, my efforts to conceal my emotions proving futile as he effortlessly deciphered the truth written in my eyes. "Say it, just once, that you love me, my Sweetheart. Just once, please," he pleaded. I finally surrendered, tears misting my own eyes as all rational thoughts scattered, "I love you. I never stopped loving you." "And I love you infinitely more," he declared, leaning closer towards my lips. I placed a trembling hand over his mouth, halting him in his tracks, and shook my head slowly. "We can't. It's wrong. We can't betray our partners." *** Two hearts, torn apart by the cruel hand of fate, find themselves face to face after 4 long years. Once college sweethearts, they have now transformed into business partners. People have come and gone, circumstances have shifted, choices have been made, and personalities have evolved. But, one thing remains unchanged: their undying love for each other, that consumes them day and night to finally claim each other as their own. However, the path ahead is far from simple. Bound by commitments, every move feels like a forbidden dance. Will they muster the strength to resist their burning desire or succumb to the long lost desire for each other?

The Words I Never Said // A Collection of Essays

21 parts Complete

Dear Friend, I have so much to tell you. I feel the words tickling the insides of my lungs, the symbols pile up, I sneeze, and they flock into a clumsy-looking snow sculpture (sorry for the unsettling image). I then begin to introduce those words to the world, to you, syllable by syllable. Like little children, they explore the emptiness of paper, and soon all the universal truths blur as I search for explanations of time and space. Where are we? What are we doing? Using emotions as my ink I tried putting into words the unspeakable thoughts that torment my mind until written. Most of these writings were born from loneliness. You don't have to read them, my Friend, but if perhaps you feel just as tormented... these letters are here, waiting to be seen. Love, - Your Friend
