The wind is soft and cool and I start to stare into the distance.
I am waiting to see the stars shoot, or the moon shimmer a smile.
The night air is like a storm on the coast, engulfing me in its grip.
Still, I stand and wait and watch,
To see the stars shoot or the moon shimmer.
The sun has been hidden for hours and I have been too!
Looking to see the life I have never knew before.
Searching for the wondrous beauty of the surroundings.
I look at them everyday and see nothing,
But tonight is special and I know that because,
I am a new person, learning the meaning of life.
Seeing that it is precious and longed for,
Knowing that I will die, just as soon as my life has started
So from now on, I will take nothing for granted,
Not the stars, the moon or the owl that hoots eerily.
Because, I am a new person receiving a new light,
And, learning that I am nothing but a human,
And I am not perfect, and never will be.
