as the stars gently graze the surface of my eyes
and the darkness blocks out any other surroundings
it is now that i truly understand how to
stand out

i know the stars shine ,
everyone knows the stars shine ,
i know the moon glows ,
everyone knows the moon glows ,

but nobody knows the real me ,
the way i know me ...

the stars may beam and gleam
filled with the gas and heat of a thousand nights
but i myself am a subject of light

i can flourish
