What do we carry with us when time has taken everything it can?
The Silent Timekeepers moves through memory, grief, displacement, compassion, and release-following the quiet traces left behind in watches, photographs, houses, roads, hospital rooms, borders, and the ordinary objects that outlive a moment.
Written in English and Spanish, these poems do not simply mirror one another. Each language carries its own rhythm and breath while returning to the same human ground: a father's hands, a stranger's suffering, the weight of memory, and the difficult grace of letting go.
Across three movements-Origin / Memory / Root, Fracture / Compassion / Encounter, and Shedding / Revelation / Opening-Pedro Luis Zayas asks what remains after loss, what survives distance, and what becomes visible when we finally loosen our grip.
A bilingual poetry collection about what we inherit, what we carry, and what remains when we finally learn to let go.
