I stare out my window,

And look at the night sky,

And I think…

Think about many things.

I take notice to the star that always seems to be outside my window,

And sometimes,

It feels like it represents me in a way,

As it was so isolated from other stars.

Time went on,

And it became more and more alone,

And I would stare at it,

And only understand its loneliness.

Alone in space,

No one around,

Nothing to do,

But exist.

And... and I would cry,

I felt that way,

For so long,

And I still do.

But recently it seemed as a star would get closer,

Just one star,

And I gained hope as it grew closer,

I felt relieved in a way.

But…

Not all is a happy ending,

The other star seems so hesitant,

As it falls farther away at times.

I watch…

And I feel the tears again,

And I can’t keep it in,

Feeling that loneliness come back.

I cried,

I cry,

I still do,

I feel for the star.

I can’t stand,

I can’t do anything,

I can’t even speak anymore,

I can only watch and cry.
