Little poem written for #Fringe's finale, from http://bit.ly/U7aGL8.
A sick child and father full of regret
A world-ending war fought in secret
Danger that will not abate
The fabric of the universe torn asunder
Gods in the lab, surpassing humanity
A man lost for years, regains faith and sanity
Shifting shades of future directions
A rather complex, emotional blender
Devastation of loss at the start
The destructive potential of a broken heart
A tapestry of human actions
August first and then September
The boy is important, a running thread
A resolution to astound the heart and the head
A pattern of love and connections
Some gave their all along the way
Years of speculation, fear, and doubt
That our favorite characters would not win out
We've taken Fringe in and not missed a beat
And through everything, a family at the core
Of strange events, of parallel worlds, and timelines rewritten
To hope, to sacrifice, and be forgiven
Always on the edge of our seats
Another tear, another Red Vine before
The last scene, last smile, and gasp
Until the last word, last moment, and laugh
We will stand at the edge of defeat
(And we will survive)
Please just one minute, one lifetime more
Having faith and forgiveness
Not giving into destiny but creating resistance
We are all enemies of fate
