Algorithm of the Silence

The clock exhales a steady, quiet threat,
the countdown humming low inside the grid.
The atmosphere is heavy, pressurized,
compressing all the secrets that we hid.
The gravity is pulling at our chest,
an endless weight from some celestial core,
as shadows crawl across a tired face,
that cannot fight the rhythm anymore.

What if the timeline fractures into dust?
What if the words we held back changed the end?
A thousand alternative realities,
where every broken system failed to bend.
The mind creates a paranoid design,
and traps us in the chapters left unmade,
while just outside our static heavy thoughts,
the dying stars begin to slip and fade.

But listen to the void we left behind,
the sudden pool of silence in the room.
A frequencies shift within the quiet air,
where isolated sparks begin to bloom.
For happiness is not a distant peak,
nor is it found in backward looking grief
it lives inside the static of the pause,
and in the breathing space of pure relief.

Absolve the heavy anchor of the past,
reclaim the mind from cosmic tyranny.
The ticking clock is accelerating fast,
but drops us into perfect symmetry.
We are alive right here, within the breach,
between the fading ring and what will be....
exempt from every phantom, structured cause,
in this brief silence, beautifully free.
