A Seductive Black Hole


Black Holes are the heavenly bodies formed by the collapse of massive stars. They are infinitely dense and their gravity is extremely strong. The stronger the gravity, the greater the velocity a subject needs to escape from that gravitational field (Escape Velocity). Nothing can travel faster than light, and even the light itself cannot escape from the attraction of a black hole.
A Seductive Black Hole

I didn’t believe when Hawking said
That the holes in Heaven are so black
And that their attraction was tremendous
Even light itself can’t escape thus.

But now I know such a force exists
Even on the earth we live
It is so strong; Oh! It’s true.
That’s why every night I dream of you.
