#lightspeed
I reach out
to you -to your essence
grappling to any shred of your memory.
Your smile.
The light in your eyes.
The tinkling of bells in
your laugh.
The soft rose that warmed all of
the freckles on your cheeks
when you blushed.
Every feature.
Faded.
Like an old picture.
Reaching and clawing through
every scene, every second.
Every memory of you.
Time stands still and the world is silent.
The stars hang, frozen in their dark sky.
The universe is, and suddenly
it isn't.
My mind
blinks.
My heart beats on like a drum and
the wind rushes from my lungs at
lightspeed as
a sickening
possibility comes to mind.
You are nothing more than s t a r d u s t .

you will drown. you will rot.
this raw feeling of reality will swallow you whole,
and the only wish you will have
will be as to how fast it takes you.

Thinking at the speed of light must be like –
Touching a popsicle under typhoid’s fever.
Could it be the scent of sorrow for someone else?
An error buried but burrowed? Borrowed?
I’d imagine, “it,” a bird at my sill
And resulting boot through the air;
Broken before(s), bludgeoned becomes,
So cracks the smile, so cracks the mirror,
So breaks and so becomes,
The speed of light.

what if stars are acctually thoughts
Gas, acctually perpetual motion thought-machines
And universes are intrinsic plains we collide on through communication...
Expanding the ever-growing wonder known as "one phrase"
Let it be
So
We matter
