Event Horizon
A boundary in space time beyond which events cannot affect an outside observer.
Standing on my event horizon,
I look inwards to see infinite nothing,
A nothing that consumes everything,
A single unattainable point,
Again and again I reach my hand into the darkness,
Grasping at the infinite possibilities,
But nothing passes my event horizon,
The possibilities don’t even stop to mock me,
I am irrelevant, unnoticed,
Less than irrelevant, invisible,
Nothing escapes the horizon,
Still I balance on the edge.
Looking outwards,
Still more chemicals, to open the door,
I see all that was, all that is to be
Everything in an instant,
Yet each moment stationary,
Each moment a possibility,
Each moment contains,
Something…
Important to me,
Some I can name,
Some I can feel,
I reach out, now grasping at the stationary moments.
But my horizon is always present.
A boundary in space time beyond which,
events cannot affect an outside observer.
I am the observer.
My boundary,
My Event Horizon,
One direction invisible,
The other direction red shifted,
Beyond any reachable spectrum.
Still I balanced on the edge.
Which way to step.
I close my eyes to seek clarity,
The possibilities cease,
The moments stop,
Just darkness now,
No points of light.
No distractions
One way peace, the other endless pain,
I look further inwards
deeper into the darkness.
I see secrets,
I see a life, or is it death eternal,
I am not alone now,
There are others here,
Old friends passed,
Lost loves,
Sweet essence,
Red Nectre.
mors tua, vita mea
Your Death, My Life.
Or is it my death your life?
Nosferatu Vampirus,
If only it were real.
I know which way to step.
Opening my eyes for one last look.
I see…. irrelevance.
My choice irrelevant,
Unnoticed.
I close my eyes again.
I choose my step,
Into the darkness
Into the eternal,
Al that is left is to reduce the impact,
To choose the time,
"Hold Infinity in the palm of your hand
And Eternity in an hour."
I Understand now what he saw.
I wait.
