In the Dark

It was dark,

Darker than I could ever imagined,

Maybe the power lines went out…

Or is it, maybe I forgot to turn the lights on

These are the questions that are left unanswered,

If I close my eyes, I try to imagine something bright

It doesn’t help, it is still dark

I am holding my breath

I’m trying not to panic

But you can hear my pulse

Racing faster and

faster

But then small lights

Appear in the night sky….

They make the sun envious

Stars, small, delicate and beautiful

These stars even make me envious with joy

I wonder as I began to fall asleep, in my warm bed

How many wishes does a star receive, could be millions or

Maybe billions of secrets! Maybe I should wish upon a star tonight

Closing my eyes I wished with all my heart, “I wish for a wish you may be heard

Before, to fall in love with a prince charming and have my happy ending”
