I was born a star. No no not figuratively, literally! I have have big round eyes, but instead of pupils, the center of my eyes hold big yellow stars. They tease me for it though. They laugh at me and call me names. The throw lemon juice in my eyes, and rip my sweater. I'm lucky i know how to sew. But the diagonal cut will always remind me of how they treated me when i am older. When the scars, physically and emotionally, heal.
 
On Gyro everyone is born with magick. But...me. I am magickless. A freak. A star-bright night light. 
 
They call me a murderer. But the doctors say it wasn't my fault Mommy died during labor. Not my fault. The words echo in my head everyday. 
"Not your fault" 
I don't believe them.
