Black Hole

BLACK  HOLE.


Accidentally I have fallen into a black hole.

Suddenly all my burdens of living, of love and death were gone but a strange feeling of neither life nor death was upon me now. Eternity had gone, time had gone. I did
not even know whether it was forever because there was no ‘ forever ’. Time
and space has entered a singularity, either gone to infinity or to emptiness.

 Objects distorted the space-time structure and the normal rules of geometry were no longer valid there. Near the black hole, the region of space was severely distorted and it began to acquire strange properties like the ‘event horizon’, which marked the boundary of the black hole and it seemed that I must have crossed the spherical surface and gone beyond it and once gone, there is no turning back. If you had not been crushed to death, there might be a possible exit, not in this universe but into other universe of unknown properties.

 My body was stretched beyond its limits and I felt it was covering the whole galaxy and expanding at an enormous space beyond the limit of galaxy and may be to the whole universe. As such the whole thing was full of absurdities and it was an excruciating feeling of pain without remedy and without relief.

A black was that region of space, which had so much concentration of mass that even the light traveling around was pulled into due to extremely high gravitational pull.

What was going to happen in the end, for all of my tortures, where there be an end? Will I be blown to smithereens or simply vanish into thin air or so to say the thin airs of time and space?

I could not to do anything accept be waiting for my fate, for eventual destruction and may be some relief of the non-being.

Though it would be a terrible end and tortures for my exploding brain. It would be
beyond description and endurance, still I hoped that there would be an outcome of a desirable end than simply extinction into a black monolithic rock crushing my brain and consciousness.

 Going beyond my rationality, I actually prayed to some higher power to be, to save me from this impersonal and tragic end and I do not know how long for I prayed so but then I heard a scream and I began to hurtle down at enormous speed into a sort of tunnel. 

 Under the impact of the light speeded up accelerations that induced numbness in my brain and then I lost my consciousness. When I regained it, I was in a different universe.

I hoped that part of that universe would allow me to travel back from that universe to my old universe another via some spherical shell of exotic matter.
