Met A Star
Once upon a time
I met a star
She had fallen from sky
Her light shining so far
That's when I noticed them
The shiny, black feathers
And that is when, finally
I've captured what I was after
I like to think
That I've taken care of her
To the best of my abilities
After all, she's still a monster
Less can be said about me
I kept her hidden from the outside
After all, people turn ignorant
When faced with something
They refuse to understand
They've never met a fallen star
That got banished from the "holy land"
We promised to be friends
"Forever, Schardinae"
I find it rather strange
For I have never told her my name
About the Creator
Schardine
23. Just an average being. That may know a devastating secret.
Or two.
The Reluctant Reporter
"You can't send me!" "There is no-one else. It's you or no-one, and that is not an option." Ameera looked at the fat paunch and florid face of her boss, a man who lived for the story and the kudos it brought him but who rarely gave consideration to the people behind the drama. When had he become so hard? She reckoned that by the end of the year, he'd be dead, collapsed from a heart attack and she struggled to conjure any sympathy in that moment and instantly felt ashamed at displaying the same lack of compassion that he had.
