Stars

Authors note: the light stands for the path in life that we take. When we stray from that path we go into darkness which stands for those things that would ruin us. This poem is describing life and what happens when you stray from the light.




shining bright
the light that shines the path
the beauty of it all
the gleaming star
showing you
that none can prevail
as the darkness rises
the light fights back
the darkness strong
the stars last stand
and the sky's last song

In the novel The Curious Incident of the Dog In The Nighttime Mark Haddon is trying to say that when you believe in the thing that you love most you will do whatever you can to help that thing. Christopher is a teenage boy with autism that has a belief whenever he sees four red cars he will have a good day and when he sees four yellow cars he will have a bad day. Now weather this is true or not he believed in having order throughout his day and his responsibility was to believe in what he thought to be right. In life we all have good and bad days but is it our emotion that makes us believe we will have a bad day or the surroundings around us. The world filled with sin has the order to make your life miserable though you try and many get through the pain we have gone mad with power. Those who defy us the right to believe are those to scared to embrace it.
