Electromagnetic Radiation = Gravity Again.

So I'm probably wrong about this and I've touched on it before but I'm still wondering if gravity could be created by em-radiation.   The thing is that waves distort space right?  They are vibrating and space vibrates around them in concentric circles like those created by a stone dropped in a pond.  The more massive the planet the greater the vibrations.  When anything vibrates it becomes longer.   A string stretches when it vibrates that's why guitar strings are often actually springs aren't they?  So vibrations will stretch space. So if space stretches then wouldn't that create that warping of space that objects do?   The effect would be minimal of course and that's what we see since gravity is barely noticeable.  Amplitude is created by more vibrations.  Energy is conveyed by the speed of the vibration.   What happens is that pressure from the more dense empty space pushes objects toward the thinner more stretched space around a planet becau
