~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

I miss the stars,

So understanding,

Was always there to listen,

But when sitting in that blasted cell,

There were no stars,

Planets, or moon,

Just darkness that met me every day.

In that cell, I lost all time,

But now laying in this room,

So brightly colored,

So full of life.

I hate it here.

Ironic is it not?

That I now wish for that hell,

I grew so accustomed to?

He took the blade away from me,

Then gently picked me up,

Took me back to that bright and lively room,

And placed me on the bed.

A gentle hand came up,

And caressed my face.

Slowly the question \"why\"

Drifted over to my ears.

It was such a small question,

That would have an easy answer.

But for me,

That simple little question,

Rang over and over in my mind,

Like a bell that never ceased to stop.

Though my features remained the same.

\"Why blame me, when she died?

Though I suppose you are right.

I should not have let her get so close,

I should not have let her get to know me.

But because of my blunder,

She now is dead.\"

His face fell at my response,

So stood to leave.

Informing me that the smallest of us all,

Will be up before long with some food.

True to his word,

The youngest one was there.

In his hands a plate laden with food.

Though it had mattered not how much you give to me,

I hardly eat much anyway.
