Singularity (Poem by Screech)

"Singularity", it is a recent favorite word of mine. It resides at the center of a black-hole, where gravity is seemingly infinite. Now that doesn't mean that it can't mean anything else...

My take is, that when two entities collide, such as to destroy each other, what remains is a singularity that consumes everything around it, and never stops. But what of the entities?

What if they survive this whole infinite gravity ordeal? Can they ever escape it? Or will they be consumed by what they themselves have created?

I don't have the answer, at least not for both sides, celestial science is beyond me :P
But do read on...



Singularity

It's come to this,
Universes collide,
Dark matter divides,
A singularity survives.

You were right, it's over,
My three leaf clover,
Hard luck, hard time,
It's just this fate of mine.

It's funny,
We never really talked about it.
Predictable mystery since day one,
It was not about me now, was it?

You see, I'm a decaying danger,
This half-life, it is not stranger,
I've been here before,
I'll be here again.
Changing one life at a time,
And leaving bittersweet pain.
You see, I'm a miser,
But there is none wiser,
I've done this before,
I'll do it again.
But I'll be gone far now,
So I tip my hat and take a bow.

Time here takes its toll,
Don't worry, I won't tell a soul.
Not directly, at least,
My words are always what they seem.
But nobody pays much attention,
If they do, they're worth the trust and ascension.

It's clear,
I was broken, so were you.
I fixed them, you ignored.
I've said this all before.
It's not some dragon's lore.
But you're an angel, go be free.
Spread your wings, fly with glee.
Just make sure,
Your eyes are open to see.
Play fair, it's not going to be easy.

Oh you saw this coming,
Didn't ya?
You thought it was all about you,
Didn't ya?
Thought it was anything but real,
Didn't ya?
How's it feel now?
Going up and about,
Running on without,
Lost in this wasteland,
Of sand dunes of doubt?

I tried, and I still can.
But I'm done,
It's not worth it, it's dumb.
I tried to bring you up,
But you're just too plain,
To understand what you've lost,
And what it is you've gained.
None can change what I have.
None can even come close,
To what I've had.
I'm glad.
It was too much and I'll be gone,
Before you can even say,
“cease the happiness”,
Or cutback.

It's expensive as all hell,
Neutron stars and quantum spells.
All that matters is dark,
Nuclear fusion and fission,
Fire and sparks,
It can be destructive,
It can light up the night.
But it can be beautiful,
If you do it right.
A warm glow, an eternal delight.
It's science, it's magic,
It's wholesome, it's tragic.
Next time, don't destroy the core,
The crux, the thing that makes it whole.

There's no right, there's no wrong,
Honey, you can't win em all.
Stay simple, stay humble.
Stay out of trouble.
Maybe once in a while, think of the calls,
Then go back on your merry way,
Blow out another bubble.

I leave you here,
I'm going into the ocean,
I'll be falling in slow motion.
Don't let your dreams shrink,
If you're overwhelmed, stop and think,
Don't wait at the brink,
Don't blink.
If you're gonna go,
Throw in everything (even the kitchen sink).

Keep your fire burning,
Keep your head in touch.
Try not to worry too much.
You'll be fine, you're strong,
It'll be all too good.
Keep on keeping on.


Cheers... ScreechDrummer
