Large light breaks into smaller lights over Paris, OH

I just sought out someone to share this information with because frankly I feel like I'm crazy.

I live on a 12 acre farm, surrounded by hundreds more acreage in a town called Paris, OH (zip code 44669, aka the middle of nowhere). I was out walking up and down our quarter mile long driveway listening to music in order to hopefully get tired enough to sleep. The time was around 3am (about an hour ago) and I looked up to see a bright light moving through the sky. It was slightly bigger than the stars, so I assumed it was a plane, but it was extremely bright and I've never seen a plane that bright before. I stopped and kept my eyes on it thinking it was perhaps a shooting star, but it wasn't moving fast enough. After about 10 seconds of watching it, the light started to dim slowly, until it was more dim than all of the stars. The object, which was a round ball of white light, appeared to break formation, or separate into 2 separate red/orange balls of light which began moving in a circle. They circled each other 1 time, and then disappeared straight up.

I would be lying if I said that I weren't slightly shaken by witnessing this. There was no alcohol or drug use present, my mind is completely clear of every detail.

I wanted to pass this along to someone in hopes that maybe someone else in my area has witnessed something, or if there's any information I could get back.
