12,304. MARIAH

MARIAH
I broke my neck at a
breakneck pace  -  and
though it wasn't for you
I did it nonetheless. I was
looking for something
different in my fortune
cookie lining. The day
was pretty mellow, and,
later, no stars were out.
Someone told me I could
see them in the day if I
really, really looked, not
only just at night. And he
swore they were always 
up there. I looked up, but
felt lonely. 'Why's the half
moon out in the middle of
the day?' I asked it as a
question, yes, but he didn't
know what to say. It was
better that way.
