I've fallen in love with the nothing With the space between the stars I've given my heart to the darkness That promises to heal all scars By erasing them. By erasing me. By making everything cease to be. And somehow that sounds like poetry. Somehow that feels like being free. My dark matter heart beats slowly In rhythm with entropy's pull Loving the void that holds me Finding meaning in null They say dark matter holds galaxies together Invisible but essential to the cosmic dance I think my heart's like that—made of whatever Gives structure to the vast expanse Of nothing. Of void. Of the great between. The substrate underneath the seen. The 95% that stays hidden The love for ending that's forbidden. I know it's wrong to love erasure I know it's dark to crave the end But after everything I've measured The void's the only honest friend DARK MATTER HEART Beating for the void DARK MATTER HEART Finding beauty in destroyed I'm in love with entropy I'm in love with ending's art I'm in love with the nothing WITH MY DARK MATTER HEART You think it's suicidal ideation But you don't understand the scope This isn't self-annihilation This is cosmic-scale hope That maybe nothingness is peaceful Maybe absence is kind Maybe dissolution's restful Maybe I don't mind Fading into the between-spaces Becoming dark matter myself Invisible but holding places For something other than self I know it's wrong to love erasure I know it's dark to crave the end But after everything I've measured The void's the truest friend DARK MATTER HEART Beating for the void DARK MATTER HEART Finding beauty in destroyed I'm in love with entropy I'm in love with ending's art I'm in love with the nothing WITH MY DARK MATTER HEART And maybe that's okay. Maybe loving the end Doesn't mean I'm broken. Maybe I'm just honest About where we're all going. Maybe my dark matter heart Sees clearly what others deny: That endings are beautiful too. That death deserves love. That the void needs witness. And maybe... Maybe witnessing the void Is the most intimate act Of all. DARK MATTER HEART [Major key making it strangely hopeful] Beating for the void! DARK MATTER HEART! Finding beauty in destroyed! I'm in love with entropy! I'm in love with ending's art! I'm in love with the nothing! WITH MY DARK MATTER HEART! Dark matter heart Beating in the void Dark matter heart I'm not destroyed I'm transformed Into absence Into beauty Into forever
