According to physicists, this is (most likely) how the universe will end. I also added a dash of the lost love theme to give it more flavour.

Accelerating Expansion
by Siberia

Note: A mix of the universe's fate and my sister's recent break-up.


Many ages ago
When I was a happy soul
A shimmering galaxy
Orbited next to me

I admired his stellar glare
How it sparkled in his hair
Sequins gathered in his eyes
Like diamonds in the night sky

I approached his milky seas
Thinking he was within reach
For my galactic arms sought
The grace of his spiral touch

But fate had other plans
And tore him from my hands
Dark energy came to play
Pulling us further away

Every second that ticks
Stretches out the emptiness
Faster and faster, it grows
Nearing absolute zero

Now, my beloved is so far
That formerly distinct stars
Fuse into one blurry spot
Temperature slowly drops...

Freezing my once swirling heart
