Did you know you're in every version of my future?
Did you know I wanted us to last?
I don't think you're meant to be behind me
Just stuck there in my past
You hit me just like lightning,
so unexpected and fast
Call it invisible string theory
Call it elasticity between you and me
You awaken my ability
You make me a better me
In every line up I would still pick you
Just no question about that
I never dreamt someone like you would find me
For that I'm eternally glad
You hit me just like lightning,
so unexpected and fast
Call it invisible string theory
Call it elasticity between you and me
You awaken my ability
You make me a better me

Fish Face
Is it safe? Is it safe? It must be safe. I don’t hear any fishing lures plunking into the water or boats with trolling motors plying the surface of my lake. Yes, I said my lake, even though these air-breathing humans treat it and those of us living in its water as theirs. I have been battling with one of them for almost ten years. He started this war, but he’ll never win.

What a great poem and great topic Frankie! I really love how you play with every string of possible reality. So many things come to mind here. Have you ever read the play Constellations by Nick Payne?
Really nice imagery here. Great flow too. Love integrating current theory into something so timeless.
I believe that everyone has that one person who's connected to them through an invisible string. Loved your poem!
