And:
"To any action there is always an opposite and equal reaction; in other words, the actions of two bodies upon each other are always equal and always opposite in direction." - Sir Isaac Newton
For the record: Sir Isaac Newton was wrong. ;)
Love in Suspension
By: Amelia Rose
For Eponine
A modern work of art
Suspended from the rafters
In the heart of the museum
Filtered in all its colors
Translucent, Effervescent
A frozen pixel in time
Zoom in, you’ll see it clearer
Zoom out, you’ll see the bigger picture
A pixel suspended in neutral space
Betimes a-spinning wildly
Until the pendulum
Stops
But an object in motion cannot stop
Unless acted on by an outside force
And an object at rest
Must stay at rest
Unless something prompts a change
It’s basic physics
Who will touch this pendulum? Who will stop it?
Who will start it swinging anew?
Especially when there is a sign on display:
“Please do not touch the art.”
A rebel. A daredevil. Maybe you?
Basic physics shall prevail.
A heart cannot be broken, if gravity never pulls it down
Crashing it to the floor
Let it float on, untouched, unchanging
It will not grow, it will not thrive
It will just be as it’s always been
But at least it will not be broken.
Suspended love
Upended love
Love that’s not really love at all
Just a work of art
On a heart
The background music of a life
Love in Suspension
