Starlight is the past

Unfolding before our eyes.

Venerable glow.

Beautiful😌 I love this aspect of space so much. You can time travel and never leave your backyard🖤

The lovelight in your lover's eye,

the red dot target of a laser sight,

both travel toward you at the same rate.

Ooo I love this! Such a dark contrast🖤

Science fiction stories are often predicated on having spacefaring vessels that are faster than the speed of light (FTL), although this is still only a fictitious concept.

Fuel issue, right? I think that’s what I read.

There’s a star that died

A million years ago

Still shining on you

It’s a wild thought isn’t it? Like a luminescent death mask. Love this!

Starlight , dim light ,

Shimmers silent streams.

Einstein’s dream to travel faster speeds

Never to be seen.

Blink and you'll miss them,

Glory days, they're gone so fast,

But great while they last... 😎

Ha! Nice! I love the nostalgia🖤 I only know a couple Springsteen songs tbh, but I can definitely see the influence!

Chris J. Franklin's avatar

Thanks! I'm glad you enjoyed it... 😎

Chris J. Franklin's avatar

And yes, I have been listening to a lot of Bruce Springsteen this week! Haha... 😎

The black hole's old light,

and the event horizon,

makes death eternal

Honeygloom's avatar

Such a beautifully horrible thought, really well done🖤

Black holes in astronomy class creeped me out so much!!

Honeygloom's avatar

Oh man, so much of the stuff this month is new to me and I am freaking out about most of it😂

Space is freaky, that's for sure!! 🌌 This theme is making me want to write longer space horror. 👻

A blast from the past

Sonic bells toll what’s to come

Eight minutes to pray

Honeygloom's avatar

This is so cool! The past and the future kind of melding into the present, so awesome🖤

In the dark of space

Light paints the sky with its grace

A blink a heartbeat

Honeygloom's avatar

So awesome! The speed of light and a heartbeat, such a cool correlation🖤
