Absence of Light

Absence of Light

written by: Selvan Muruvan

 

Before the
Beginning…

Only
Ever
Blissful,
Primordial
Nothingness.

Silent
Sea of
Tranquility,
Outside of
Time.

Thoughtless,
Formless~

Unsuspecting,

Until
Unbidden, a
Singular
Deafening
Explosion,

Lashed outwards at
One hundred and
Eighty
Six
Thousand,

Three hundred and
Twenty
Seven
Miles per
Second-

Times
Infinity~

Coalesced
In
An
Instant, to become
Everything!

Light
Conspired with
Matter, to
Fracture~

Just
Precisely so, that
I could
Behold such
Unprecedented
Beauty, which

Homogenized, as the
Formulae of
You…

It was only then, that
Darkness

Also
Became.
