I have made stars


I have made stars
for the sky

I believe they will sparkle all the more in the dark
They will float on strings of golden thread and each and every one will trick the sparkle in your eye
into the love you will feel.
The feeling won't go away for a very long time
but it will linger and linger away
causing a series of events that might end up tearing paper but it
will
carry you into a new world
a world where not knowing is how you live.
A life of ignorance is normal and 
simplicity is valued.

You will enter this world by catching a star

And each star will want its freedom back
but your greed will store away every single one

and they will forever be sad.



Sad like a starfish turned upside down.
Sad like a giant hand reaching for a hermit crab.
Sad like the clouds before it rains.

There will be fewer and fewer stars to share and fewer and fewer people to delight in the magic.

The magic of the colours in rainbows.
The magic of waking up next to someone you love.
The magic of fairy lights in the sky.




It will be dangerous.

Dangerous like nature.
Dangerous like man-made objects.
Dangerous like humans.

To keep so many stars in one place.

And so the adventure must begin.

It's time!
