Chapter 18 - Your stars.

I can't sleep under your stars...

They look down on me and sneer

"You shouldn't be here"

They mock me and make faces...

They've watched you make love to him...

They've watched you cry

They've been around far longer than I have.

I don't like looking at them.

They whisper in my dreams

All of the things that I try not to think about while I'm awake...

All of the things that made you love him.

They know what I don't.

They laugh when I close my eyes...

I hear them laughing all the time.

I hate your stars...

That point at me

All sides

All five

They all stare at me with hollowed eye's

They shower me with flicks of dust

Memories that'll never die.

I can't sleep...

It'll never go away.

The little lights in the corner of your room. They'll laugh at me

Everyday.

They'll mock me because I care so much

Because I can't block them out

Because I can't make them stop

Because I can't look away

Because I'm not strong enough...

I hate your stars...

I hate them like they hate me.
