Space

by Ashley Maradiaga Somarriba

An enigmatic,                                                                     

endless,                                                                             

eerie void                                                                           

but alluring                                                                                                             

with its unanswered

questions

Stars that bedazzle

the spacious vacuum

Lights invisible

to our naive eyes 

giving it shades 

of midnight blue 

and ultraviolet purple

Planets

full of secrets

inhabiting it

as a safe house

to keep their 

secrets far

away from 

our reach
