love lights the sky from the milky spirals
the galaxies full-throttle of radiance and smiles
fixed in time, not demised to banish these stars seen
for miles and miles,
to a black hole, gravitational pull, locked and sealed
with no room to shine on you or me or the heavens
seen, the light of love sucked backward through space and time.
a force of intense magnetic nothingness, no escaping, no way out
a compact mass of a magnitude blankness, no! there’s nothing!
nothing but this, nothing to see inside the spacetime abyss.
