Spotted Darkness
By: Eric Wyatt
I stared into the dim, cold night,
Watching the stars go by.
Luminous white against pitch black,
Painted the stunning sky.
I gazed at this classic marvel,
Waiting for something strange.
This night was like all the others,
Nothing seemed it would change.
But once I looked closely above,
Something looked out of place.
The stars began to move around,
Until they made a face.
I wished to dance among the stars,
And lose myself in dark.
So I could have my face up there,
For me to leave my mark.
My place was not among the stars,
My face will never shine.
But now I know how hard it was,
For someone to design.
I do not know whose face I saw,
I probably never will.
But when at night I see that face,
My life stands almost still.
