My Cosmic Universe

I've written this poem 4 years ago while I was in our classroom and a classmate  was reporting. I know it was rude not to listen in class but it was very rare of me to be able to write in such circumstance. I can't remember who my teacher was but I can remember the classroom and the row I was in, especially the exact feeling when I was writing. I have rewritten this poem on some notebooks and have soft copies in my computer, and all awhile, I thought it didn't have a title until I happen to stumble on an old blog I made before and saw it was posted there together with the title. 

Note: I normally do not put punctuation marks, but every end of a line is a stop when the poem is being read. So here it is:

You gave chaos a different meaning

When you scattered beauty around it

You opened your hands

Then dropped the stones

Colliding silently

In that vast empty space

That can only be filled

By your hands

You gave darkness an infinite grace

When your light dimly lit it

You opened your eyes

Then shed the tears

Shattering slowly

Atom by atom

Creating little candles

That spreads in that darkness

You made emptiness become unknown

When you filled it with your somber dreams

You had your arms wide open

Then wrapped it all

Turning void to oblivion

And the universe to existence.
