a glitch's swan song
(left in uutiif. crashed and didn't get to say my goodbye to everyone. here it is.)
we cried here.
we told ourselves we wouldn’t.
told ourselves we wouldn’t sink to our knees
on cold rock and break down completely into watery gasps
the blazing sunlight glinting on our tears.
entangled, we collapsed
above the world’s surface,
marveling at the colours, the endless blue.
we were so close to the sun and yet so cold.
we went up to all the doors, dotted across hyperspace,
looking for the answer to: how can we make ur stay?
instead, we heard: look at all this infinite beauty;
remember?
we hugged by the lanterns in balzare and kloro,
bounced in haoma,
ice skated by nottis,
felt the river water lap our feet in the shivering isles.
we rushed up to each door,
laughing and crying as we went,
finding more and more questions:
how could anything be so beautiful?
and-when we all go, will it be loud?
will it echo across the soft stars?
will we be here with everyone,
staring up into the velvet space,
recounting parties, feats, laughing together?
will the sky crack with heartbreak seeing us all,
so sad and happy to have belonged?
love is everywhere here.
this is the last door, my friends.
hold on tight.
giants,
take us home.
