Wishing On Nothing Chapter 1 There I was again for the third time that week. Just sitting there staring once again into the nothingness that has always seemed to be me. I sat there and I cried knowing that the stars could watch over me. They were always looking after me. One star stuck out in particular. It was the sad looking one which was like my personal star. It didn�t give much light and I knew that the star was feeling the same as me. Plain and simple without things people notice. I was always like that. I always seemed to blend with people. But there I was crying into the stars and hoping that my oblivion would soon become something more. The tears became heavy and everything was blurry except for that one star. �Why am I like this? Why am I just another person in the crowd? How come I am never the winner but always the loser?� I asked the star. It seemed to glisten while I talked. It seemed to care. Not many people cared about me because I wasn�t like them. I was never the leader or the follower. I was just there. �Why can�t I be in a fairy tale? Why can�t I have the prince or the beautiful horse or even the glass slipper? But no I am more like the bird that could never fly.� I cried into the darkness. �I don�t want to be here anymore. I am so sick of myself and this damn darkness!� I yelled. I brought my knees to my chest and cried even harder. Sand was between my toes and it felt like someone grabbing at me. �Will I ever find my place? Did you ever find yours?� I asked the star. I looked down at my feet and looked back up and the star seemed to disappear without me. �Where did you go? Take me with you!� I screamed. The waves of the ocean seemed to get louder and louder with each breath I took. I couldn�t leave though. It wasn�t my time yet. But what is my point to be here. I wiped my tears and regained my composure and pushed my blond hair out of my eyes. I looked at the moon and wished I was that bright. Out of the corner of my eye I saw a star shoot by. It had taken the place of where my gloomy star had once been. Now it was replaced with a bright star. I took one look at it and closed my eyes to make a wish. Wished is what I am used to even though they never came true and I was used to that. �Starlight star bright, first star I see tonight. I wish I may wish I might have this wish I wish tonight. Lead the way for me please. Take your fire and take me to where I am supposed to be. Take my hand and lead me to my prince.� I said. Once again I got up and started walking back to my house. Little did I know that this wish would actually happen and my life would soon change forever. Good or bad is the last thing I would know. But eventually I was someone or something and you never know.....Next: Chapter 2 |
