i. the black hole
stars
they too fell
beautifully warped
frighteningly dark
nothing matters
time ceases
it's empty
there's only gravity
(and you)
you're trapped.
ii.the event horizon
point of no return
destruction-mode: activated
every inch
every ounce
torn apart
b y i

you're gone.
iii. the singularity
beyond
another galaxy awaits
now
go forth
weightless
fearless
you're infinite.

three stages of destruction according to black holes: first, we learn about this black hole and the loneliness and darkness that entails. then, we are destroyed. lastly, we don't even know what has become of us. but what we know is that we're different. and there are infinite possibilities of what will become of us. and only then, can we turn into something better.
moral of the story: we need to let go
