Blink
This is one that wasn't very good I thought, but will share it anyways, was away for a week at a camp and was laying down in the baseball field around 3am and just watching the stars
Blink
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I feel as if I were empty, such as a man who has lost his wife. I wish to be filled, with something. I search, I look, I find nothing to my likings. I look for something to fix the puzzle that has been created through the trifling and the trouble.
I found one last night while looking up. I saw the stars, ah! Glorious stars, shining endlessly, beautiful, and bold. These stars, so bright and powerful, they leave out of breath and numb below the neck. Oh how I wish to see each one, but no... The forces unseen stop me, what might they be? Love, hate, shyness, which one hinders my ultimate thoughts?
That night though was mine, something to watch and stare at. I looked for the longest time, Time it was not there, nothing to stop from watching. As I continued I saw figures, the Bear, the Bull, the Scorpion and the Fighter. Oh how I loved them all.
I blinked. Bah, the blasted blink, the split second of a moment where everything left my sight. I opened my eyes again after what seemed an eternity and found myself lying on the ground with my hands under each other under my head. I must not extinguish what I see before me now. Continuing my search of the stars, the shapes change and the stars move. I see more. Figures to shapes and clusters to animals, I see a women now. She takes form. I see everything, anything, all my eyes can soak in, all I need. This woman is of nobility long lost ages ago. She is proud and rightfully so, with a figure to leave you in awe, eyes to set the great sky to shame, hair to block out the fiery sun with golden flames, and a face that even the most noble of Kings would agree, they are not worthy to look upon it.
I cannot look away, thank god. This face is glory, WAIT! I see light, a light to east, NO! the sun is here to chase away my stars, the beasts in the sky, the women of glory is fading in the morning light. How can this be? This cannot be, but alas, it is. The women fades to nothing, and the stars to blue, I lie there and cry because now I am left there with nothing but my cold back and the memory of her. I will keep the memory forever, nothing can change it even newer ones will not block out the angelic women of the stars.
My eyes hurt.
I blink.
