Pandora and Schrödinger

Writer's picture: Marieke de KokerMarieke de Koker

Pandora


You who opened Pandora's box

In setting me free

Unleashed a beautiful and chaotic storm


You whose love far outweighs your fears

Hand in hand with me

Always with me 

Stepping into the vast unknown oblivion


Schrödinger


You are the truth I dare not know

The singular duality of both joyous and tragic outcomes

You are everything I know so well

And everything I have never known


I tread on the suspense of not knowing

The bittersweet

My infinitely impatient nature

Remains outwardly still and frozen

Unable to open Schrödinger's box
