Falling. Fallen. STARS.

Lucky for those who have seen shooting stars.

With their own eyes they have witnessed rare events, probably just once in a lifetime.

Lucky are those who have witnessed more than once.

Not all people see one.

Just like me.

if i could only lock every single star on the horizon; place them all inside a jar, and everytime i'll miss you all i have to do is to pick one star and make a wish from the bottom of my heart that i'm on your side again.

One thing i have always wanted to do is to lie on an open field and stare at the vast heavens. That is on a clear and bright night when the endless sky is littered with thousands and countless white dots. Twinkling as they stare back atume, fading as uhe clouds coverutheir lights anu appear again as the Earth rotates on its own axis. Coz, of the hundredth time i have stared at the firmament i haven't been as fortunate as others to be able to make a wish while watching a star fall from where it had been.

That is one dream i haven't done and i'd love to do even just for once in my life... and i am planning to do that in the future even though that would mean i'd be doing it by myself. But hey, wouldn't it be much nicer to watch the dark blue skies with someone important to you.

Someone said that i am lucky i have not seen one because as what she have told me, a wishing star is a falling star - meaning a DEAD one.

A fallen star.

Would you still call it star once it hit the ground?

Coz they're just ball of gases, i guess, if the science part of my brain have not failed me yet.

Stars are meant to twinkle and give light to the night sky.

And they could no longer do that when they fall.

I answered by saying, the star has to give way to the lucky person's wish. It has to sacrifice its light. And that is a part of a star's life.  They can't stay for long up above. Someday, somehow they will lose their light and one by one they will all fall from heaven. Meteor shower. EVen though that would mean that there would be a lot of dead stars. Yet, there would still be countless white dots up above.

And it was inculcated to people's brain that whenever one will see a shooting star they have to make a wish. I don't really know if the wishes made came true, that is still for me to see. And for those who have seen one and have made a wish, could you save me the effort of waiting and tell me if it did came true.

Well, i don't care if who would be lucky or who wouldn't be.

I just want to see one.

Coz it's how the universe was made.

And i have to catch a glimpse of that.
