The stars in the sky shined as I looked into space. Maybe, one day I can be a star too.
My bright, secure nest in the great tree was nothing compared to this. This... giant canvas of specks and dots all out in the open. So close to one another. Even in the darkest nights I know there are out there, waiting to be found.
I put my head down and looked at the ground below me. The same ground since my existence. Nothing has changed, but the fact that it's right there, that there is nothing from keeping me from floating to the ground and feeling the lush, moist texture of a blade of grass in the middle of the night... Takes away the mystery. So I am not interested.
I am me, so I am not interested.
But beyond this world there are things unexplored, and that's something of value...
I returned to my lonely nest and sit down beside a baby doll I had come across earlier today. The company is much appreciated, but it doesn't do much talking. In fact it doesn't talk at all. I see people everyday that talk to each other. Like the stars they are interesting individually, but as a collective is when they truly shine. Maybe, one day I can be person too.
With that being said, I lay me head down and go to sleep. One day, I will be loved.
