Fireflies
There is a girl, and she is all alone in this world, she sits in a room with a chair and a table, and she wonders. Sometimes the girl looks out the window but there is nothing to see. Nothing but barren wastelands but still she wonders. She wonders what may lay beyond the dead grass and dry soil, she wonders if there may be something to see, anything at all. Maybe there is life, but she supposes not. One day the girl finally decides to venture outside, out to the wastelands. She walks far and far, but still there is nothing. The girl is sad to see the grass is still dead and the soil still dry, But then comes a surprise; little lights! Billions and billions of tiny lights all surrounding her. The girl smiles, never has she seen such beauty, such wonder, such happiness!
