when you lie to someone you tell them thay are not worth the truth


She walked along the beach
The warm sand shifting beneath her feet
Her dog wailing in front of her
Barking at something
She could not see
She could hear the waves crossing
Hitting the shore
In a constant rhythm
She felt the ocean breeze
The warm summer sun
Beat down on her
Her feet hit something
She bent down and searched for it
She ran her hand over its bumpy texture
And then along the edges of it
This was something they
Called a star fish
And she idly wondered
If that’s what the stars in the sky looked like
