Typically he prefers to be an optimist
to see the good & be grateful for everything that he does have.
Living day to day, unbound by anyone or anything beyond himself.
Turned into a Make-A-Wish kid
Cut on the right eye was vicious
Narrowly missed the right temple, accident forgivness
Left cowering in the corner like he heard three 6's
One day,
we’ll surge past the exosphere,
flying at
two hundred ninety-nine million seven hundred ninety-two thousand four hundred fifty-

My life is a black hole,
Sucking in everything around it.
Even light cannot escape my darkness,
Even those that I love cannot withstand it.
The chance
that a black hole will materialize on earth
is so infintesimally small
as to be considered 'practically' impossible
But still
the quantum physics suggesting the possibility
Say it to me again,

At first it was nothing.
A black hole-
Empty, no meaning.
But, you feed it so much.
It grows, being filled:
filled with anger, tearing souls.
