Black Hole

You float on high In the outer space Time passing by Into the endlessness You are brighter than the stars You outshine them all With the power in your head You never gonna fall. What can crush you? While you're lost in the blue The ecstasy subsides To be replaced by an intense pain. You wonder because you know no reason You can’t see it, you feel it building up The strong gravity Pulling you into it. You try to fight it, you try to pretend You still rule the universe But inside you fear it is going to end Someday too soon. You are near a black hole Swallowing you into darkness Into hopelessness and defeat Tearing you apart You put a smile on your face You can’t let them know you lost. Nobody knows, nobody could see They thought you left for a faraway galaxy You suffer in silence, till it engulfs you wholly.
