Erased From the StarsA Poem by NelliKongErased From the Stars Twinkle twinkle little star in the night sky… please hear my wish as I say it with tears in my eyes… often times I ask myself why… trying to find my emergency water supply because my river has run dry… Erased… without a trace… I don’t belong in this place… I came in last place at the race…. And at the finish line no one recognized my face nor gave me grace…but then again why would they put flowers in my empty vase… their facial expression might seem like fine print, but to me it’s boldface. The star that’s above the world so high… the way life has hit me they gave me a black eye…. I can tell by the twinkle how much time has passed by…. I wonder will I win this game…. I’m tired of it being a tie. © 2023 NelliKong |
