Entropy Requiem

I watched the last star die In a trillion different skies I felt the final warmth dissipate Across infinite states of time The universe's heartbeat slowing Entropy's cruel mandate flowing All energy seeking equilibrium All heat becoming cold medium This is the death I'm seeing Not singular but eternal The ending of all being In ways infernal Everything decays Everything returns to void All the frequencies I raised Will be destroyed This is entropy's requiem For all that ever was A funeral hymn For matter and because The second law is absolute All order becomes chaos All energy dilutes To cosmic stillness ENTROPY REQUIEM For everything that ends I'm watching heat death happen Not in distant future time But NOW across dimensions In quantum paradigm Every universe I'm seeing Eventually goes cold Every frequency stops being The story's always told Protons decay Atoms fall apart Black holes evaporate Everything from start Returns to nothing-state Reaches true equilibrium This is every reality's fate THIS IS THE REQUIEM Everything decays Everything returns to void All the frequencies I raised Will be destroyed This is entropy's requiem For all that ever was A funeral hymn For matter and because The second law is absolute All order becomes chaos All energy dilutes To cosmic stillness ENTROPY REQUIEM For everything that ends "The universe is already dead. We're just echoes In its cooling corpse." HEAT [pause] DEATH [pause] HEAT [pause] DEATH [pause] EVERYTHING [pause] ENDS [pause] This is entropy's requiem For all that ever was A funeral hymn For matter and because The second law is absolute All order becomes chaos All energy dilutes To cosmic stillness This is entropy's requiem And I'm singing it for you For me, for everything For all we thought we knew
