Theory of Special Relativity
One day you said you needed a break, a break from all of us
So you hopped on a shuttle and left, left for me to screw up
While you were gone, t i m e seemed to drag longer for me than it did for you
But when you came back, you
didn't seem to think so
It didn't take long for things to change.
You grew over me like maturity,
like a fad that enters obscurity
and though I kept my integrity,
It didn't matter anyways
You should have never gotten on that shuttle.
Nerd alert! This poem is about Einstein's theory of special relativity and the twin paradox. Learn more about it: youtube.com/watch?v=0iJZ_QGMLD0
