FINDING SERENITY IN A BLACK HOLE

Problems.
Braking a moving car.
What once was is no more.
Dissipation of tires and road,
Calculations of zero at infinity.
Both everything and nothing,
Reaching escape velocity from reality;
An ethereal mass of gravity with no substance
Soaring through time and space.
But energy is never truly destroyed,
Simply changed.
Continue on,
Don’t stop because of me.
