Tick Tock
Ticking away the moments that make up a dull day, sitting on
a pile of dirt watching the fading sun sinking before my
eyes, staring at the wounded crimson sky, thinking about the
lost years and what could have been.

The night fell, seeding the sky with bright flickering stars
trying to outshine the lonely moon.
"It's not fair!" I shouted to no one in particular, "so many
stars and but one life to see them all. I'll never live to
visit all this stars, I'll never live to see all the sandy
beaches and blue oceans, I'll never become who I want to
become".

Then I heard a horse striding behind me. I didn't look back
for I knew who this rider is.
"Look up to the stars and you're gone" the rider whispered
softly upon my ears. The moon reflected in my falling tears
as I looked up to the stars I never thought I'd visit.
I was gone.
Sitting on the back of a pale horse, spinning madly across
the stars, catching a sunbeam in my palm, laughing manically
for no reason in particular.
