A dark poem about two beings on the same path towards the end of their existence. |
-You And I Collide- by Keaton Foster Two directions One path Two separate beings Of Questionable mass Ready to smash Further increasing in speed Melting the tires off the wheels Consuming more fuel Than could ever be sustainable Far past any redline Way beyond any visual cue Engines screaming of their doom Such a wasteful endeavor of living Is what we have always been Obliteration through Course interception The damage will be great The impact will be catastrophic There will be nothing left Like dust on the wind Who we are will be scattered away Identifiable we will no longer be Those who love us will be sad Those who hate us will applaud The path we were set upon is straight Never curving in any way No deviation regardless of how hard we tried A direct impact has always been our fate On the day when you and I collide We will become one within nothing A metaphysical representation of life Far beyond certain death Only then will we be truly free Only then will our pieces become infused The path we are on is the same The direction remains unchanged Time dictates when the impact will be Speed shortens the space between Down the clock counts Faster than ever before Time plus distance equals the end We both are acutely aware that More speed will lessen the pain We are both certain that what fuels us Has been all but consumed On the day when you and I collide The impact will be a catalyst of change What will be left will resemble nothing Of you and I and our former case… You And I Collide Written by Keaton Foster Copyright © 2012. |
