I stand, in attendance of awe
The here and the now
The dissolving boundaries
I wonder, about assimilating colours
About the possibility of such complexity
About the privilege of witnessing such beauty
I behold, to what feels like time dilation
To what transfigures me into pure gratification
Even the shadows cannot help but lie flat
I get reminded, of withering transitions
Of probing into adjacent possibilities
And of the brevity of fragile endings

Walls Crumble
Open Gates
Rushing, Sprinting
Dreaded feels fasten their pace
Unwelcomed, Unwanted
Get Set Go!
Say the Synapses
Beating Heart
Restless Mind
Conflicted Existence
Only a matter of time
An unfolding of the folded
Catalyzed series of events
Exhausted gases deplete from within
The star caves onto itself
BOOM
But, a STAR nonetheless

Consumes, Evokes, Conjures;
To go beyond the ordinaries
Connects, Surrenders, Immerses;
To the greater than ourselves
Attempts, Bids, Endeavors;
To answer the mystery of being
Aids, Helps, Assists;
To impregnate the present with meaning
Inclines, Inspires, Incites;
To contemplate as the unknowns may
Equips, Furnishes, Provisions;
To shatter the indifferences of everyday
Imitates, Adapts, Transforms;
To act as a magnifying glass
Italicizes, Bolds, Underlines;
To ensure moments don’t lose their class
Allows, Permits, Sanctions;
To let the infinities converse
Succeeds, Prospers, Triumphs;
To create ripples in the universe
