star seemed different today.

his cheekbones were sunken in.

his eyes were bloodshot with dark circles
consuming his hazel brown eyes.

his lips were cracked.

his smile was droopy.

his sleeves were pulled over his hands.

and he wasn't wearing his crown.

his head was buried in his hands as
the professor gave us
our daily lecture.

my body twitched with the need
to smoke.

i sigh, clenching my jaw.
not now.

what happened to star?

why isn't he glowing?

is he hurt?

of course, all these thoughts can't
be answered because i'm
simply invisible to him.

little does he know, i care
all too much about him.
