Fireflies.

Tonight, in between writing essays about the rationality of mysticism and the different ways in which communication is needed in families, I took a break to go outside and drink my water. There, I saw one of the most beautiful things I've ever gotten to. It was like the sky was twice as big as it should have been and there was twice as many stars as there should have been, and half of them were flashing. Fireflies. Clouds of them. Swirling around, it felt like I was in space. As soon as school's over I'm going to write a song about them.


I hope they're out tomorrow night.
