They called it a catastrophe,
But he knew that it had atrophied,
Past that point of no return.
It had been just one tired night,
Followed by another oversight,
Until the cascade of secrets buried him.

I thought that we would live forever,
immortals on this mortal plane.
But this isn’t what I meant
when I said forever.
I told you that we would rule the world

Oh how I wish I had watched my feet
and not trod on my dog’s toes!

I am 8 years old.
What I did over the summer is: found a lost city.
Me and my brother, Scott, he’s 12, were playing tag in our back yard when we found a hole beside a big oak tree. Scott was curious, and so we decided to go in. We crawled on our tummies for what seemed like forever, until we were in a large cave.
It looked like a ravine in Minecraft. It was long and tall ...
dust collapses. gas shatters. the clouds' ashes huddle together in one mumbling mass as if to shield itself from the catastrophe it is and then- it blinks. the protostar blinks, and the universe lets out a sigh of relief.
the protostar stretches out its arms and yawns, light rushing to the end of its fingertips as it pushes against the walls of its nebula. the walls give in to its poking and sud...
