A Comet

I watch the night sky waiting for it to pass
I missed it last time
The sky is beautiful and clear tonight
Stars shine as mine eyes bead empty

I sit on the dark grass wondering when it'll come
I wait and wait...
It finally happens
The beautiful light passes my empty eyes

The light lingers in my now lustorous visual spheres
For a single second my fears disappear
It leaves as my face beams down again

Doves burst from my chest as the comet passes and I freeze.

Time to wait again...
