~strike a match~

You could light up the dark,
You could show the world your face
You could run away to a place where the stars don't know you
And you have no name
You could walk
Right through the fire,
Feel the poison
Of those strong, hateful words,
But keep dancing
Across the sky
Yes, I know,
Your heart may crumble,
The world may shake,
Your shadow might become swallowed up
In the deepest depths
But the sun will shine on,
The flowers will still bloom
The midnight magic
Of a thousand souls
Breathing in and out
The same rhythm
Seems to set this life aglow
And all the ones
Who came before you
Will bow their heads and know,
Come lightning, come thunder, come waves that crash you into the rocky shores,
There's a light,
Dazzling and strong
Let's reach
For it now
Both of us, as one
Time runs together like beads on a string,
Words come in and out,
Disappear
Strike a match
And reveal the hidden truth
Just below the surface

Two things: one, I originally wrote this poem in cursive so I'm includ
ing a picture of that, and two, this poem was very soothing to write.
