A sky of stars
She gave everyone she knew a star in the sky
so anytime she looked up she could be greeted with the comfort of familiarity
To be reminded of the love both given and received
The stars were what she liked most about the sky, after all
She became so familiar with looking up that she created maps in her mind
Each landmark representing someone she held dear
and the journey they shared
The stars were what she like most about the sky, Then they started to fall
One by one each landmark crumbled
Slowly she started looking down instead of up
For the maps she had created
served as a reminder
of what was
and of what will never be again
The stars _used_ to be what she liked most about the sky
Until they all fell
