the many-worlds theory 

there’s a theory

in quantum mechanics

an utterly complex

& difficult theory

to understand-

much less explain

without proper expertise

and divisive research.

put simply,

it states that

our universe,

our past,

our present

and our future

are a part of an

infinite number

of universes.

so many,

in fact

that every possible

outcome,

reality

and scenario

is happening,

has happened

and will happen.

I take comfort in this theory.

I bend my knees in gratitude

because in this possibility

there is another-

one, where you and I

have a chance,

a feasible chance

somewhere outside

the tangle

of this life

and the next.

I only hope 

they grasp the luck

we’ve been denied.

  1. Awesome! written poem.

    🙂

    Quantum Mechanics and General Relativity are both accepted as scientific fact even though they’re mutually exclusive. Albert Einstein spent the second half of his life searching for a unifying truth that would reconcile the two.

    1. Ah! I’m familiar! I love quantum mechanics and I’ve been trying to incorporate the theories into my poetry.. it’s just difficult to simplify the complexity behind them. I need more research, etc. Thank you!
