I feel the wind whip at my face as I stand at the edge of the elevation. It's a piece of boulder that hugs the edge of a road that overlooks the valley.

The wind blows from behind my back so that my short locks are all over my face. But it doesn't bother me. I feel like a shed leaf, falling off of a tree slowly, swinging like a cradle as it makes its way down. I feel lighter with every passing second. So light. I close my eyes, let go of my legs, and lean. And I rush to the ground far below.

The next thing I remember is pain. Pain exploding in every part of my body, I try to move but my body doesn’t comply. I try to breathe, but every breath sends a pang that radiates all over my chest.

I try to open my eyes, and the light is blinding. I can feel hands on my body, trying to grab at me, trying to sit me up, tapping at my face, pressing at my abdomen. I try to turn away from them, but my body is screaming agony. There are murmers all around me like bees buzzing inside my head.

I open my eyes once again, and it makes my head hurt. I see a bunch of faces I can't recognise, and then comes yours, that now dominates my field of vision. The intensity of murmers increase. Your long hair fall on my face as you look at me, eyes wide with fear and anger. I try to look away, and I slowly feel myself losing consciousness. The last thing I hear is you saying, “You asshole...”

What a starry night.

Hey. It’s been a while. I hear the stars are just as pretty where you are. I guess no matter how far away a friend is, they can always see something similar. Well I guess that’s not entirely true. I miss the people I used to talk to. I saw one of them the other day and it felt like it was only a short while since we had last talked. Would it be the same with you? I guess like every star, everyone is different. Hope you’re doing well bud.

You know what? I still like them. They may not be perfect, and I know that I messed up, but there is something about them that I like. Next time I just need to raise the shutter speed and raise the exposure. Maybe then I will have a better outcome. I plan on doing some more when I go out to liberty lake. I hope these will do for now.
