Dedicated Poem:
This poem serves as a lyrical companion to "Threshold of the Fractured." While the artwork captures the visual stillness of shock, the poem gives a voice to that suspended moment. It explores the internal landscape where silence swallows color and the world blurs to pale. In its quiet defiance, the poem mirrors the art's single vein of light, showing how a soul's memory, gilded and whole, endures against the void of grief.
At the threshold of the fractured,
where silence swallows color,
and the world blurs to pale—
a single vein of light persists.
Shock suspends the moment,
time halts on a cracked foundation,
and all that remains
is the glimmer of a soul
refusing to fade.
Here, grief is a hush
that blinds and binds,
yet through the brokenness
the heart’s gold endures—
a quiet defiance,
a memory gilded,
against the void.
