Secrets of Light

In the silence that surrounds his gaze,
the pupils hide an ancient universe,
like eyes of dust and dreams never told,
that listen to the stars dance in the void.
His smile fragments among the orbits,
a light that escapes, hidden yet present,
in the secret glow of an inner cosmos,
he guards the mystery of a sleepless sky.
The stars sense his heart of an astronomer,
and he, in silence, sees beyond the constellations,
the smile concealed among the planets and comets,
a spark of life among infinite galaxies.
And when darkness wraps the universe,
he smiles, aware of the invisible,
of the subtle emotion that shines in his gaze,
a hidden star, illuminating his entire world.
