[NaPoWriMo 2015] Sightings

This is for the second prompt! I love this one. I just love stars and constellations and anything that has to do with astronomy. But because I love it so much, I also had a harder time deciding on what to write. Since for VerseUs, we have a deadline (technically), I just made this sort-of reflective poem so I could pass on time. I apologize if it seems unfinished or something. (Then again, we don’t know a lot about stars yet, so maybe this could be parallel to that…? Hehe :P)

Sightings

When I was ten, I saw three stars lined up to resemble a belt of someone I didn’t know I only saw and got to know him after six years.

When I saw the Big Dipper up in the night sky that night before I turned almost thirteen, I felt like it scooped me up from where I was.

Two years before I turned eighteen I looked for the Big Dipper again but instead, I found the Little Dipper.

It was amusing for me to know that in looking for something big, instead, I found something small.

But these stars are not little at all they’re far greater than any of us may even experience; we would be overwhelmed to death.

Yet, they’re big and small in their own ways but it depends on how we see them together these stars are no stranger to other stars, too.
