Beyond the City Lights
The moon so high above us makes me wonder.
Watching the city lights and people that lie thereunder;
Stars like pin-pricks in this raven night,
Sitting up in the sky, ever featherlight.
Beyond our busy city’s detection,
Silently hidden there in suspension.
Here I sit, watching it all,
Still unaware of how these stars fall.
Because here, laying in this obsidian darkness,
I hurts to imagine a time in which this light wouldn’t be on us.

Me
Our world
