Black Hole

My friends and I have always enjoyed talking about the universe and we all share a passion for reading about Black Holes.

Scientifically a black hole is a region of space-time exhibiting gravitational attraction so strong that nothing—no particles or even electromagnetic radiation such as light—can escape from it. I have tried to imagine it and jotted down a poem...

Black hole

I was born from the decay

Of my previous existence

Heated so hard

He to Fe

My core shook with anger

Burnt with hatred

"Nobody cares for me, I'm dead"

The thought made my crust fade away

Just like my mantle

The long-life I lived

Providing survival to all my planets

But then suddenly swallowing them

With my extended gravity

Betraying them

And everything in my way

Friends none I have

Don't think of making me your buddy

Then I would be having you as spaghetti

You all may say I am a dark force

But I do have good

Transporting to another parallel world perhaps

My garland of light

Shimmering protons

Defines me

Great minds have explored me

Wheeler, Einstein and Hawking

Yet never figured my whole secret

You may dislike me

But the key to the universe

Is me....
