A Thousand Pieces
August 30, 2019
The parts they don’t see
The feelings they choose not to acknowledge
Whether they see it upon its face
Or upon its soul
Dying every night so that another may shine
Caring more of what someone thinks
For a moment, hating itself
Hiding its true self to fit others ideals
For a moment it shines
But in the morning
Another shall rise
It will always be number two
It’ll always come after
Will always be below someone else.
But never fear
For it is loyal and can always be counted on
If it can’t be enough for you
It’ll always be enough when you need something the most
Whether to hold you while you cry
Or make you whole again
Just for a while
It will always be there.
Always have and always will
For I am the moon
And I shall shine a light on your path home
