The Stars

by Christina Zonak (Leo) - Not entered

I look up at the stars,
They used to smile at me.
But all I know now is the chill
of their taunts,
The searing pain of their laughter.
And they care nothing for those they hurt.
Those shunned, those rejected.
Turning away, I shiver.
The silent tears stream down my face.
I look up again at the stars,
pleading, begging
Asking them to end my sorrow.
They ignore my plea.
As I walk away from their tormenting voices,
I look up at the stars once more,
And whisper his name.
