You cover your skin

with layers of powder and cream

because you don't like the freckles

on your nose and cheeks


When I tell you its fine

you just roll your eyes and smiles

and say that you don't like them

So I say fine, but I have a question


Does the sky look better empty or with stars?

you say with stars

So I tell you that the freckles are the stars

on the sky of your skin


You say fine and leave them like that

and now my sky is littered with stars

and I wouldn't want it

any other way
