🌚🌚🌚A POEM 🌚🌚🌚 This one was prompted by All The Bright Places. I stopped reading so I could write it down! I forgot about it until now... I guess this one can mean anything you want it to mean; for me it’s about taking a big step that you aren’t sure about, but it all turns out alright in the end 🖖🏻 #poetry #poems #whatif #writtenbycharlotte #poemsfrombooks #inspiredbyreading #blackholes #spacepoem

Black Hole

My skin liquifies

Cascading down marble bones

As bounding waterfalls

Pulled closer to your center

.

Orbiting you

Is a star collapsing in on itself

A vacuum of magnetic inhales

.

The earth crumbles

Beneath saturated toes

Calcified walls corrode

In doubled over defeat

.

Your fingers, explosive

Ignite fires under my tongue

My breath, my lungs, my hips

.

My petals desperately delicate

Split open sacrificed

Dispersed into space dust

Carried upwards eternally

.

And my lips tremble

As you suck away at hot teeth

Along with all the melting words

I was never meant to say

.

Oh it is so compelling

To be destroyed by you

.

Space

A thing where I live but you can't breath A place where I thrive and will not leave An idea that I've came to terms with but you cant thrive A(n) [ ] I need to survive. The astronaut who never left Earth The phantom who was alone at birth The child who lied about being alone And no matter what, would never answer his phone The thought that would drive sane men mad And the same thing that would make you sad And to say these things about how I never tried I just need space, not you, I lied.

Sugar cubes

"If you removed all the empty space from human bodies leaving only electrons and the other subatomic particles, all seven billion human bodies would fit in the space of a sugar cube"

We're mainly maybe nothing then Just a bit more than emptiness

Not solid as we seem, that's Just the way we have to see the way it is Those tiny bits there are Could only ever be impossibly whole

This wisp of substance within that wide Held together bound only by some magic and relentless pull of other bits Souls the sum of these Smallest somethinged sparks Shards of hanging glow linked Together far apart Across an endless dark

And maybe the heaven we seek and our god is how We dream and know every bit everywhere and everyone Crumbles to a singular joy sometime , pools to a sea of glow Where we constantly feel that elusive whole
