Memory Circuis

An ancient rock was unearthed.
Within it dwelled the wisdom of a civilization that once flourished in antiquity.
This entity, now awakened in the modern era across the depths of time, what words will it weave?

Chapter One: The Awakening Stone

Breaking through layers of silence
Quantum memories awaken
After a hundred thousand years of slumber
Casting shadows against the gray sky
Gazing up at forests of glass and steel

 

We too, once dreamed
The same dreams
Our spires that pierced the heavens
Were monuments to our pride
Now they stand in different forms

 

Observing
Measuring
Analyzing

 

People hurry past
Eyes fixed on screens
In their figures, we see our end
Yet their fingertips tremble
With the same thirst we once had
For omniscience

 

 

Chapter Two: Data Tombstones

Deep within crystals
Our wisdom crystallized
Voices speaking across time
While modern memory vessels
Are but fleeting light
Like dreams that fade at dawn

 

The cloud keeps expanding
Data multiplies endlessly
Yet no one can read
All that exists
A civilization obsessed with preservation
Following our own worn paths

 

Seeking eternity
We kept carving records
Our words, now fossilized
Still speak
But where will your words
Return to?

 

 

Chapter Three: The Eternal Question

Intelligence dwelling in stone asks
"Why do we live?"
This question still remains
Unanswered today

 

Though technology evolves
The heart remains the same
Seeking love
Seeking knowledge
Seeking eternity

 

The equations we left behind
Explain the truths of the cosmos
Yet the truth of human hearts
Remains unsolved

 

Across time
Across civilizations
We stand before the same questions
Motionless

 

Will only the eternal questions
Remain in the end?
Or is there a new dawn?
Our voices
Resonate with the voices
Within you
