For a First

Last night, at ten thirty o'clock PM I felt dimmed and depressed. I had been lying around, lazily, in front of the television and on facebook all day. Thinking about assignments for school due on Tuesday, because of Easter break, and how much I didn't want to turn in a poem my English teacher assigned us long ago. I haven't even started. Anyway, as I walked out of the house with a sleeping bag lingering on my left arm, I noticed my mom was outside. She was confused thinking I was going camping in the woods or something. She looked at me, a confused and startled look on her face. My brother had been running away at night recently, and I'm pretty sure she thought I was under his influence. I told her I was only out here to look at the stars to clear my thoughts. Again that look on her face. I remembered that I was in Atlanta, where there are high-rise buildings; especially because of the fact I live ten minutes outside of the metro area. As I looked up, I did see one star, a beautiful one that didn't belong in Atlanta, but it was there. My mom asked if she could stay out here with me, but I put the offer down, I wanted time alone which I was rarely able to, and she went inside. I walked barefoot over to our tennis court where I most carefully set down the sleeping bag, and then I got in it. I looked up as the censored lights outside went off. I looked up at that star again. It was still there, but then I saw about twenty others lying in my presence. I was astonished. Even with all of the lights, I could still see stars. As I looked at them, I thought about people I loved around me, and people I despise. Things that bothered me in life, and things I couldn't live without. I did think this was alone time, but I wanted to write about it. This is my first post, but my writing will get a lot better along the way. I hope you will continue reading and I will definitely have a new post tomorrow. I am a passionate girl, I love life, but at some times in my life, it has been complicated. I'm sure you will soon love to read about it and hopefully soon you will :). Whoever is reading this out there, god bless and I love that you care. Thank you.
