In the vast, unending velvet sea,
Where stars are born and dreams run free,
Lies a shadow deep and profound,
A silent scream without a sound.
Black holes whisper in the night,
Eternal voids of endless might,
Swallowing light with hungry grace,
Holding secrets of time and space.
Their edges twist with gravity’s pull,
A cosmic dance so dark and full,
Where matter bends and stars decay,
Lost in the abyss, far away.
Yet in this darkness, mysteries gleam,
A universe’s secret dream,
The heart of darkness, silent, deep,
Where cosmic secrets lie asleep.
In black holes’ depths, the unknown calls,
A gateway beyond the cosmic walls,
Inviting us to ponder, explore,
The endless dark, forevermore.
