Special thanks to Salinye and Merelas for their special blue glowing potion of inspiration.

 

At Midnight,

 

I stumble into my backyard.

A field of grass surrounded by trees.

The only sounds are wind and frogs.

The only light the moon and stars.

 

What a cruel joke, to be stuck here on Earth

To be mocked by millions of stars.

That lay out of reach, light-years away,

At distances too far for the gods.

 

I’m filled with despair

As I make the realization,

That all I will do is in vain.

And for a brief moment

Gaze towards self-termination

To end an un-end-able pain
