A star falls from the sky and into your hands. 

Then it seeps through your veins 

and swims inside your blood 

and becomes every part of you. 

And then you have to put it back into the sky. 

And it’s the most painful thing you’ll ever have to do

and that you’ve ever done. 

But what’s yours is yours. 

Whether it’s up in the sky or here in your hands. 

And one day, it’ll fall from the sky 

and hit you in the head real hard and that time, 

you won’t have to put it back in the sky again. 

--C. JoyBell C.
