It was before the sky fell
before dilations and exhalations
Comings
goings
etc...
Etc...
Before the blink
the flicker
and the orgasm
that there was the expansion
the crunch
and the silence
Shantih
Peccavi
Forgive me
It's my fault
Goodbye
Author notes
Shantih: Hindi for peace
Peccavi: Latin for I have sinned
