the stars only shine at night
that’s how i always knew i’d be one of them
i was
and i did shine for a while
but then the star became the flower
no chance of growing in a place where the light couldn’t reach
but i did
during a time that made no sense to be on my side
i finally had the chance to let it all go
that moment was all i had, but i found peace in that
although i write this with a heavy heart, at least it’s finally full
i still admire the stars to this day, but just from a distance
