IF IT'S A BLACK HOLE

IF IT'S A BLACK HOLE

~

Perhaps I am just an ant, of sorts, to a higher food chain

and fate is 'whatever'

You may only be a shooting star

or

randomly 'forever'

~

Perhaps I do not have a choice in my destiny

and decisions are a programmed brain

You many be an integral part of me

like

a sweet refrain

~

Perhaps there is nothing after my last awareness

(if I even exist)

Thus ~ I throw my head back in what feels like laugahter

and love what feels like your kiss
