All our unseen tears that have dried,
echoes of our screams,
clutched heart wishes,
true repentance gnawing soul,
like its sister guilt
with heavier heart,
questions raising like waves,
but crashed inside the body
without proper guide,
all hobnobbing like bubbles
whirling,
in the black hole.

This is a deeply thought provoking entry. Yes cleverly done; a Black Hole is an excellent metaphor for the vast array of emotions we experience and their sometimes seemingly endless depth.

that's interesting, the image of repentance as a sister to guilt. You don't mention atonement for wrongdoing.
Questions! Well, isn't that the truth?
This is a unusual and welldone take on that black hole prompt.

According to Paul faith is not by works. When we're forgiven it's free!

it is a truth...another cousin or sister of guilt can be atonement..But I was focusing on the dark side of it all to fill the black hole.
