STARt Being Honest.

I really don't know how to describe this. Sorry.

She looked at the stars and hoped for a tear free night,

She looked at the stars and asked for the will to continue her fight,

She looked at the stars which made her eyes feel alive,

She looked at the stars and asked for guidance to reach the bright light,

She looked at the stars and questioned if she was liked or disliked,

She looked at the stars, murmured a good night and fell asleep to the screams of her demons in fright.

Author's Note

Hey guys! Sorry I haven't uploaded anything for a while. This is short, so I'm sorry in advance. I wrote it like an hour ago, so I haven't made any changes in it. Criticize at your best. :)
I hope you guys understand the ending.

oooooo! stark use of contrast and twist at the end .... the darkness is a surprise (not a bad thing) .. night terrors afflict a lot of people ... falling asleep to their screams is not pleasant .. i think the fears are relating to a person not being able to free themselves from the thoughts that precede the terrors .. but .. could be lots of things ;)

She looked at the stars, murmured a good night
and fell asleep to the screams of her demons in fright.

The last stanza lifted the poem.
Starry night gives us many thoughts and when we come down we saw the exact what we are, but its time to think what we are!!!!!
May be I am wrong but it is time to think....

Thank you. There are a number of interpretations to this poem. But only one accurately fits to it. Hopefully somebody will crack it. :)
