Under The Stars
You'd think traveling under the stars would be fun. But you are so wrong. So very, very wrong!
I'm out of water and I am exhausted. My feet hurt. My eyes sting. My hair swings around my face like a dry whip. My entire body is sore.
I don't know how long I've walked.
The stars shine above me, winking and so far away. Our four moons have come out to play on the night sky. I wish I could join them.
I already hated my father for doing all these terrible things. Now I hated what was being done to me.
I am just a kid, well almost an adult, but still! How am I supposed to fix all he has done.
I sit down, the temptation of laying down is whining at me. My body begs me to listen.
I close my eyes for a minute, the breeze whistling across my face.
I open them, searching for firewood. I really need to get some shut eye.
I gather logs of wood, surround them with stones, and then light them up with a match.
I pull out my sleeping bag, snuggling in for the night.
I whisper, as if my family can hear me, "Good night!".
I watch the fire as sleep claims me, holding me in her loving embrace.
