A black hole in my heart

Beauty, seen the same from all directions.
Her eye, a dark abyss I'm held within.
Brilliance unbound, by my detections,
that milky streak upon her speckled skin.
Two body problem, collide and entwine,
our minds expand and pulsars race.
Only briefly do these planets align,
my functions collapse in time and space.
But forever could the seconds last,
past the horizon never looking back.
Stretched and distorted, our fate is cast.
Singular as one, but my love seems to lack.
I feel nothing, your beauty torn apart,
empty, void, a black hole in my heart.
