I am not a morning person, not very unique
I'd rather waste away in the pale moonlight for weeks
Letting myself drift away as the chilling winds brush against my cheek

Having the darkness swallow me with its gaping jaw
In an uncanny way the darkness is lonely yet so comforting I can't withdraw
I am scared of the dark but I can not escape its claw

How the light reflected off the dewy grass that dawn
It was like the pain of waking up after wishing to never wake up again was gone
Seeing how the sky turned from black to lilac, the sun shinning on

Made me feel so alive
I finally let some light arrive
I felt comforted but no longer lonely or deprived

The sun had a lively charm
Instead of swallowing me it welcomed me in with open arms
Arms that wrapped around me causing no harm

Not like a death grip but like a warm hug I didn't have to fight
Never before have i wanted to bask in a pool of light
Letting the warmth absorb into my skin, feeling so bright

Although the sun is bright it still falls
Yet it always finds its way back up again, like a fireball
If the sun can break free then so can I. Standing tall

The way it fights off the darkness
Letting me breathe again
Makes me no longer afraid of the dark

Darkness would rip me apart and let me float away
Into nothing, just a stray
The sun shines through me and like a prism

I disperse into so many colors, no longer grey
I prefer to grow in the light now
I am a morning person
