stars .

on friday night, saturday morning - 1:26am .
just when i saw about to turn in after a very melancholic episode of drama,
when i looked out of the window, i saw a star .

a bright, shiny, shimmering star .

just one . one star . twinkling on its own . alone .
without any other stars around her .
i believe it's a female star .

i was so freaking excited! :D
it's been years since i saw stars up in the sky ..
the last time was in australia, 2002 .

so i stared at it for very long, smiling .
it seems like she's smiling too, as if she has something to say .

there was nothing on my mind,
absolutely nothing .
i felt so free, so calm . don't know why .
just when i was about to allow some thoughts in into my mind,
my mum coughed so i turned around .

i pulled up the blanket she kicked away,
and turned back to continue to watch my star ..
or to be lost in my thoughts .

that was the only time i'm allowed to think without boundaries .

but, she was gone .
i only left her for a minute,
and there, she is gone .
i leapt out of bed to go nearer to the window ..
rubbed my eyes and checked, she was really gone .
