You see them climbing the spires of their creation without regret. In iron and glass they carve their legacy, while you remain silent, A shadow frozen in the ruins...

One thought, igniting the dream, Seven bold souls, steady as they seem. Ten missions past, Challenger soared, Twenty-five flights, the program roared. Tick-tick. A countdown clear. The world leans close. The clock draws near. Thirty-six degrees—a frozen doubt. A seal strained tight; the gas leaks out. Ignition. Roar. Climb. Silence screams. A nation watches shattered dreams. Seventy-three seconds, sky turned to flame, History echoes their hallowed names. At 5:00...

I still have time, To arise again, The timer hasnt hit ten, Time isn't my friend, 8 seconds remain. I punch hard, I kick, I choke, I feel sick.

In the cathedral of time, where seconds drip like holy myrrh on the altar of eternity, We stand, creatures of light draped in mantles of shadow and doubt, With golden hands weaving the veil of reality, yet eyes covered by scales of ignorance, While the Great Weaver watches silently from behind the cosmic curtain.

It’s my graduation, What an awesome day, What can I say, Up a few steps, Then capped, Then down a few, Between me and you, All of 90 seconds No more, No fuss, no trumpet, No encore, I studied, I slaved, I cried, I worked through The night, For 4 years, For this honor, My family hardly Heard my name, But this Was for me, My moment of fame. Made all the More special, With the presence Of my...
