Unmourned, only time continues to turn.
The Windmill That Was Never Missed portrays a place where nothing happens,
yet time continues to move.
In a forgotten landscape stands a small windmill,
its purpose long gone, still turning quietly.
There is no story, no event -
only the accumulation of silent time.
This piece neither clings to emotion nor rejects it.
Instead, it observes human existence from a measured distance,
as if watching life unfold without interference.
Silence, solitude, unbearable duration.
Within these restrained repetitions and open spaces,
a faint motion remains -
a subtle search for meaning that never fully speaks its name.
Rather than expressing emotion,
this music allows what remains unspoken to continue its slow rotation.
It is a quiet record of motion,
left behind by time itself.
