After such an exhausting day, I went to bed to rest, to calm my mind and to dream. I don't think I would be able to explain with details what I dreamt that day, but I can ensure that everything written here will be similar to that.
"All I could see, what's basically everyone's daily life. A small village with its own people with their problems, basically life but in another place and time. But still, my eyes followed a young couple, I could tell they were in love, probably true love: their actions, their way of speaking to the other. I just could see that. But happiness always comes to an end, in this case; the bell of the village was heard in all corners and that meant one thing: War. Several soldiers were coming to town as could be sseen in the distance, all to recruit new soldiers for the War that was about to unfold in their world.
Our young couple was, unfortunately, separated against their own will, but this didn't suppose a problem for them since from there onwards, they could feel nothing but happiness when they looked up at the sky at nights. They could see each other. Then, time went by, maybe months or even years.
But everything in life comes to an end. The same happens to wars and conflicts with someone victorious and someone defeated. In all this time, our young warrior became a hero in this tale, he was brave enough to fight for his country, his village and, absolutely, for his beloved. It was at the same declaration of victory that I could see them again together since both had joined the army long ago with the thought in mind of finding each other at some point either dead or alive. Still, they never felt they were alone, they were together in mind through stars. At the end of the day, they spoke to each other to what they had to witness for better or for worse, they have changed but that made their love much stronger. It was here, when they said goodbye to each other since a strange sound was coming from the tents at the other side of the field. It ended up being an enemy that wasn't happy with the surrender they declared, so he went for our young hero and with a spear in hand, he threw it to him and he managed to dodge but... it impaled someone else as you could hear that it hit someone. When everyone turned themselves to see the worst, they saw it... our young lady... was killed...
Everyone felt happiness, anger and sadness altogether... If I were to explain what happened to that enemy, I would never be precise. But I can tell that our young man cried with her beloved on his arms with cries of pain and impotency."
And now, the most beautiful thing of all:
"It is said that stars are guides for either people and all kinds of creatures. This is why, when someone abandons this world, you are given the chance to be part of them, to be part of the firmament along the brightest stars. I can see the whole village now, next to a river, and they were crying. The ceremony began with the young man calling the stars and their spirits asking them if they could take care of his beloved until the end of days. After the proposal, he commanded everyone to shut their eyes down just for them to sense how she was becoming star dust. Just a few minutes went by and he let everyone to open their eyes and looking at the sky to see how she had become a shooting star that was going to the land of the brightest stars."
After that, I woke up and all I could do was to cry.
