The beginning

The nameless one Part 1

At the edge of oblivion they stood

Feeding their eyes with rays of the new born moon

Thinking of how blessed are they for breathing in the womb

Bones reduced to ash the hope for all their dreams

For they were abandoned oh they were forsaken in the sea

By the night they died and in the early morning they fled

Away looking for the shore to sink in deep

Burdened by the weight of the universe chained to their feet

Emotionless they sat deep deep within the sea                  

Tears combined with water everything disappears

Even that glorious prophecy between her sleeves

Closing their eyes wishing for death to be their ease

From this untold misery from the suffering of the years

Oh merciful creator of all that is real hear our cries unleash the tears

For our eyes have been dried by the fear

The fear of the day that will never come

When our souls stray in the seventh atmosphere

In nothingness they heard those silent screams

Beholders of the night bow for me’’

For I am your destiny , I am the beast’’

The consumer of all those who die in fear ‘’

For all the abandoned spirits down in the sea’’

Cursing the spark of existence that ended them here

they bowed for a million years before the light that was revealed …

How thrilling a verse! can u shed some light on the meaning of 'seventh atmosphere''? i have a notion it could be something religious. And, why is the poem entitled 'The Beginning' when it contrarily speaks of The End?
