VERSES OF THE SANCTUARY is the continuation of a journey of the children of the Sanctuary which started in ANAMNESIS. The children of the Sanctuary, are the creative minds, the divine souls, gods among human begins and the light of life. They live in the human society, just like everyone else but all along, they have felt something is missing, they perceive that there is something else; they try to find the inexplicable to the reason and to the senses... the truth. Understanding more the new world, behind unopened doors, between unexplored parallels, where the poetical verses of art dominates, where philosophy is a life style and where all the immortal souls belongs to... the eternal place, the Sanctuary. Here are the Poetry and Songs, experience by the divine immortal souls, fighting their own demons, in a world of dark mortal souls, a world of hate and chaos, destruction and confusion.
