Stars

The stars have been watching every human on this earth since the day they were born, every laugh and cry, every moment you suffered and loved. The stars were and still are the creators of us, the stars shape our souls give us there spark and the power of a star before sending us down. The stars watch every person fall in love, every person who says there lonely and anyone in between, they see the same outcomes in every person's life. Changes between people and scenarios always the same ending. The stars stopped interacting with the people they stopped dancing when they heard laughs of children and they stopped getting dimmed when they heard the cry of the lonely. People sat with the power of a star and never used it, to focused on what they couldn't do instead of what's possible. Years have passed since anyone heard the stars and felt the joy of dancing stars, it all turned into folk tales and nothing more. So how has this average girl got the stars to dance, laugh, cry, fear, what made the stars feel so much that when clairie was about to take that step that the stars blinked out? They couldn't bear to watch, the whole night sky grew dark.

Looking at this girl clairie, you would see nothing different from yourself she is plain, average one might say, so what's making clairie so special? What about this girl made the stars spark back to life what made the stars sing and dance all night, what made them dim and fearful? Claire like all others had a power of a star no one in a long time has been able to figure out how to control harvest and grow that power, some focused on it in a material way getting as strong as they can physically get. People buying stupid potions made by people who swore that it would help but no one was able to figure out how to actually show the strength of a star. When clairie was born she had this spark to her, the day she was born she called all the attention to herself every star was watching when she first cried. She never seemed to feel, never seemed to smile but when she did they danced, and when she cried it rained. No she could not control the weather, her emotions were so raw and so strong the stars melted with her rage. They watched as she fell off her bike for the first time scraping her knee, watch as she got her first A on a math test, watched as she cracked her first bone and then joke. Everything she did amazed them, not because she was human because she was her. Claire has gunpowder in her voice and fire at her fingertips, our past engraved into her mind she had constellation in her blood. She ruled the night sky and when no one made one for her she spun herself a a crown of gold from wheat.

She was everything all the gods and goddesses you could think of wrapped in a ball of fire and rage, her eyes were copper against honey and sage and she never thought twice when building her throne from bones. They have never seen a girl like this, crow like wings and a deafening silence. The way the air stills before a hurricane there whispers tried to warn, warn humanity of a queen that was rising powerful and bloodthirsty. But they never listened, but they don't know everything, they have been here since the beginning of time and yet, they couldn't figure out her.

Slowly clairie made herself known, people all around the world saw the power of a star, jealousy, anger, envy, and pride are just some things felt about her. She was in the spotlight now, not sure if she wanted it not sure if she even wanted this power but nonetheless she was here and had it. From that day clairie built her throne people doubted her and rebelled the thought of a queen. But she had the power and the stars next to her so no one could do anything, as a couple years past people begin to see the good side of clairie she was strong and brave but she did not boast, she had pride and power but was fair to all people. The stars danced again they sang with pride and happiness, people all around the world saw the effect, the stars were a little brighter twinkled a little more and you could hear them singing from the sky. The stars were in love they found a queen who they can look up to, dance for.

So when the day came clairie got cold, ice cold, people were confused. There loving queen now never smilled never laughed never joked or even cried. She never felt anything until she was behind four walls, she didn't cry unless she was alone. The stars were so joyus to find a queen that they didn't notice how the gunpowder in her voice was clogging her throat of the desperate pleads for help. They didn't notice how the fire at her fingertips were burning her. The night was her kingdom and they were her saviours, but they hadn't noticed, she looked to them for comfort and they stilled, in fear of her voice. She was our queen but she still needed a partner, she still needed a friend, someone to talk to and to relate to she needed someone to love. She was alone, lonely, sad, and scared and they danced to that they sang about her deepest sadness and her greatest fears.

So when she started to crumble to fall they asked the gods to help, they refused to help her out of the pit they placed her in. and so instead of a throne she built a ladder with their bones. She held her breath before the hurricanes and tried to hold them back, stilling the air and causing a silence you wouldn't want to break. She was strong enough to shake the earth with her voice and every cry and struggle rattled everyone to their bones. They had been watching her since the day she was born, but they couldn't watch this, that's why the stars disappeared that night. They couldn't stand the sight of watching there queen drop from her throne. And they never wanted to open them again. They never wanted to open there eyes again because if they did, it would make it all true. She would be gone. That's why the stars have not returned. Were the stars humanity praised. But what's a kingdom without its queen?

The stars loved at some point, they loved with passion fire and rage. They sang all day and danced at night, they had a queen she was loved, she was powerful and the definition of starlight. The stars took all they could get of that light sucking it in basking in it so when they realised that they haven't left any for their queen it was to late, Claire lost her star power she fell from her throne never rising backup clairie lost her love and hope, passion, rage and kindness she lost everything that ever made her Clairie. So yes the stars loved but they took advantage of it. That is why are nights are dark, the stars shall mourn an eternity, for we shall never see the light that clairie brought ever again.
