Stardust

Why do you write?

They always asked me

Doesn't it get boring for you?

Don't you feel bad

Intoxicating others with your words?

Writing to me has become

My very special place

In which I can rant about whatever I want

Without being judged

And talk about how I feel

And view many things in this world

Writing has saved me

From drowning many times

And has picked me up

When nobody else could

I wouldn't say

I am in my hopeless phase

But I can for sure say

I am mentally exhausted about everything

I don't want to go on Instagram anymore

I don't want to go to work

I don't want to do anything

All I want to do

Is sleep all day under the stars

And one day

Wake up from this nightmare in my head

I want to wake up

In a world full of bright stars

That will illuminate my path

And see what celestial things await me

I want to leave this place

And be free from society

I don't want to be trapped by nightmares

I want to live free

And forget about life

This is my only wish for the stars

Will this finally come true?

Will I finally be able to sleep under the stars forever?

And become stardust?

I will finally be a star in the sky

Helping many others illuminate their path

So they can become a shining star all eternity

Thank you for everything again

You will all be forever in my heart

Now it's time for me

To become stardust

And disappear

In this dark sky

I will always love you
