this isn't a poem but this idea about change suddenly popped into my mind a couple of days ago and I just want to put it here. :)
I am the universe.
I expanded through the dark space; discovering new things, finding new light. I traveled through the unknown path, uncovering myself in the process, in the between glorious lights and the dark skies. I enjoyed watching the stars as they shined praise for me. I began talking to every planet I stumble upon and made them my friends. Comets are like distant acquaintances that come and go, but I like their company. Some asteroids often come in my way blocking my path so I had to readjust my focus. Black holes started to emerge within my realm, sucking all the optimism in me but I was able to get hang on every journey.
It was hell of a ride, but ultimately fun.
But at one point, everything stopped and I started to contract within the realm inside me; crushing everything inside me in the process. The contraction broke all of my dreams, hopes and everything that I look forward to. Everything was in chaos; emotions thrashing everywhere, my self-esteem crushing down in an instant. Suddenly, all the light was gone; leaving me into a dark blob just like the black holes that I despise. All the heat and pressure started to bottle up inside me and I couldn't take it anymore; I exploded. I exploded releasing all the trapped emotions in me; fear, anger, sadness, guilt, regret. After I recovered from the Big Bang, I started expanding again.
And I was never the same again.
