Faces light up the screen

Faces light up the screen—

Flickering fragments of fleeting selves,

adrift in the ceaseless stream.

 

A chance collision, molecules at a synapse,

stirs the sleeping giant within—

a mind weighted with dreams,

its depths rising to wakefulness.

A whisper unfurls, then takes flight,

shaping the void with incandescent words—

etching light across the dark,

before dissolving into ether.

 

A spark, brief yet eternal:

once, and no more.
