I look up at the sky
I see the stars calling my name
they want me to join them
but if I did nothing would be the same
they are just so beautiful
I wish I was beautiful like that
instead I’m an 18 year old girl
who is nothing but ugly and fat
the way the stars shine
it takes my breath away
all ugliness fades
I love feeling this way
they dance in the sky
without a care in the universe
they sing in perfect harmony
they never need to rehearse
I was to be a star
I want to shine in my sky
I have every opportunity to become one
but I’m still here and I don’t know why
I guess it’s not my time to shine
I got things to do down here
I smile in disappointment
as I walk away from the only things
that make my life perfectly clear
