Once upon a star
One night a girl who was always alone walked out onto her lawn. Her name is Lola. Sure, she has parents that love her, but they where getting divorced. Also, her voice comes and goes, if its there, it doesn’t stay for long. Lola looked at ther big black sky with the distant stars that look so close yet are so very far away. A lone star fell across the endless sky. “I wish someone would understand me.” The shooting star seemed to pulse, and then Lola heard a voice that sounded like a hundred silver bells.
“Little girl I hear your cry
From up here in the sky
No longer shall thy be sad
For thy’s wish granted
Shall be my goal
One million rain drops
Fall from thy’s eyes
Because of many more hallow lies
Sleep well tonight
My dear child for
All shall be reviled to thee
In dawns dim light”
Lola went to bed not knowing what the morning brings. Mean while s boy by the name of Danny walks the empty street he once called home. Past the street lights flickering, teasing him, mocking the happiness he once had of playing in the light, acting like the light burned. The cold doctor’s words rang through his head, too numb to relies they where gone forever Danny took a left and as the town sank behind him the words finally sunk in. Mom. Dad. Why did you leave me?? Danny thought. Just when they finally stopped fighting each other. Danny started to run. He was trying to run so fast that the sadness imbedded in his heart could not reach him. It did not work. Crying as he ran Danny found him self what seemed like an eternity later, he saw an open field now what he asked himself as he watched the stars shine. There wasn’t a cloud in sight. Danny laid in the grass and watched the stars, wondering if any one new how if felt to feel as if the whole world was crashing down on you once the dust from the last cold breeze starts to settle. Guess that’s how life works he thought, wiping away the last tear. Danny watched a star dance through the sky. I wish I wasn’t alone, I don’t want to be noticed by every one or any thing wishing star, I just wish for a friend that understood and that we were in thins world then Danny thought the word. The one word that he had always been told to use only once in his life. He heard something that sounded like a wind chime yet, t’was a voice.
“Please do not cry little ‘un
For thou is not alone
Tis a little girl with great power
Calls for you
She will guide thee
Into the darkness in thee own heart
I just pray
To see the day
You find out her cause
To help thee”
Danny gasped as the star burst into many different stars as the word rang through his head.
Lola walked to the bathroom. Uhg she thought as she looked in the mirror. Lola raked a brush through her hair and looked much better. Why worry, you could go to school with an afro and no one would know your there. Lola asked her self. After letting her cat Suzie out side, she looked at the clock. Oh no! School starts in nineteen minutes! She thought.lola grabed her back pack and ran out the door and down the street. Running all the while, Lola didn’t notice the bird in front of her untill she triped and it was an inch from her face. “Oh!” Lola exclaimed when she saw it.
