I have fallen, fallen deeply,
deeply beyond the horizon.
No longer to escape you
midnight black hole
of breathless purple gravity.
You have opened, opened slowly,
slowly the door to your darkness.
Enticed, invited, curious
cradle of light,
so willingly I tumbled in.
Secrets buried, buried with care,
care to keep your universe blue?
The bough that breaks shattered the light,
plunging gravely,
lulled and lost from wisdom’s view.
