Black Hole Heart

Never would I ever let you love me

I am night

You, you are the sun

I am not even the moon

More of a voracious black hole

A collapsing reminder

Of a universe in decay

You are the light, the life, and the day

Never shall the two come to meet

Or the world would suddenly be incomplete

What would we do without happiness and joy

If my darkness were to eat your rays

Fore the beginning of their journey, each morn

Sucking every molecule of light into my core

Dismantling and assimilating it

Within my own vacuous heart

The pain and destruction would all suddenly

Actually, be my fault

So turn away, but please don’t cease your glowing

My gravity allows light and sound to waft

Melody and bridge on the wind

As I hungrily drink your aura in

Like the fizzy punch of tonic against my

Parched dry lips
