The Night

My world
Is surrounded by darkness
And every person in my life is a star
And every time I keep going
Is when the moon comes out
So the night time is my safe place
Sure it's the place where everyone is asleep
And I'm left with no one to talk to
But my thoughts
But it is my sanctuary
As it is also my battle ground
Each night is a fight
Each night is a promise
Each night is an attempt
An attempt to keep going
A promise to never give up
A fight against my own mind
At night I don't have to worry about
Who's staring at and judging
My body
I don't have to think about
What others may think
I don't have to worry about
Being insecure
All I have to worry about
Is what's happening
In my own head
And see if I can fight back
By myself.
