God...Do You See?

I remember thinking about this on the way home today. I was in the car with my dad, enjoying my music, and the time to myself.

The only star I see tonight, I see it through my window. I see it so clearly, flickering in the dark sky filled with clouds. Here is this one star, only one, out of the hundreds we see each night. I only hear soothing music filling my brain, activating all my thoughts. There they are, right in front of me, I try to grab on to them, but I lose control. So I turn to the one star in the sky tonight, I ask and ask,

God…Do you see who I see looking at me in this window? Don’t let go of him, don’t let him ruin his life…
God…Do you see the person sitting next to him? Don’t let him disappoint that person, don’t let him see pain in that person’s eyes again, give that person all the happiness he deserves…
God…Do you see who I see in my thoughts? Take care of them, tell them I love them, don’t let me fail them…
God…Do you see those wishes in my heart? Grant them, I beg you, grant them…

I see the star flickering harder, until it disappeared behind the clouds. But my eyes keep staring, hoping my questions would be answered, hoping for so many things to come true. And there the star appeared once again, but this time with so many more, until the whole sky filled with stars once again. Though it is no clear answer, I still stare into the stars, each one flickering by themselves. I want to be one of those stars, I want to flicker in the night, and I want to flicker with happiness. Only way to accomplish that, is if my wishes are granted…
