The darkness was haunting
everyday's a night
There's no air to breathe
There's nobody in sight.

Light years have past
then came a boom.
I saw you floating there.
I thought "I still have room".

A mysterious force
started pulling us together.
We just found ourselves
circling each other.

Together we danced
like we're in a trance
Suddenly this hell I'm in
felt more like heaven.

But as we go through
the septet of orbital revolutions,
I realised we are going
in opposite directions.

I wanted to pull back,
I wanted to retreat.
But how do you avoid
such an inevitable defeat?

Soon the distance
between us has closed
When we collided
I heard myself explode.

I never saw you again
after all that's happened.
The darkness crept back
here which I once called heaven.

Let me gather my particles,
my dust, my shattered core.
As I stay in isolation
alone in this void once more.

Light years will pass
before another boom.
After a decade of millenia
the One will come; I'll see you soon.
According to Wikipedia, a stellar collision is the coming together of two stars, which through the force of gravity merge into one larger unit, like a planet perhaps.Β Β Astronomers predict that events such as this occur once every 10,000 years. Ten thousand years. Just imagine that. The chances of stars colliding are astronomical; like finding that certain someone. Pun intended by the way (heh)
