Topaz

The stars shine as I stare at the sky the galaxy surrounds me the moon forms a smile at me I smile back my eyes become drowsy I fall asleep.

I have dreams of the sky and the universe as what was seen before me the stars have the bright topaz glint as they glitch only made of gas that burn in your eyes if you ever went near them.

In my head I see a shooting star it zooms past my house it flickers the colour it resembles is topaz the bright blue locks that fill my eyes in my sleep.

I wake in the night to hear my mum’s footsteps walking up the stairs she checks on me to see if I was ok and sound asleep as she comes through the door I quickly but quietly turn over so she doesn’t think suspicious finally she leaves.
