Sonder! I really like these first two pieces. Your formatting is so neat and polished and the word choice is somehow just the right blend of academic/scientific and poetic.

This phrasing was beautiful:
"you gesture vaguely to the turbid galaxies roiling above overwhelmed"
I love how nonchalant that is and yet the turn to "overwhelmed" at the end.
you should know i am a time traveler &
there is no season as achingly temporary as now
but i have promised to return

You must never give into despair. Allow yourself to slip down that road, and you surrender to your lowest instincts. In the darkest times, hope is something you give yourself. That is the meaning of inner strength.
