I can't be alone

I was always shined apon as if I were the stars in the night sky

I would sit alone for hours
Watching the sky and tracing all the constellations

For a while I was afraid of everything

Afraid of what would happen if I lived

Afraid that I would be scared

But I'm slowly finding comfort in the loud thunder filled nights

Not being so scared of the rain falling on my skin

For it is not acid

And I will not burn

Only under the eyes of the devil

I will learn
