I lurk within the shadows
Waiting
Watching
Hoping someone will notice me
Hoping someone will care

The darkness is like my lover
It embraces me
Pulls me into a sweet hug
It makes me feel safe and wanted

The night is like my best friend
It holds my hand and guides me
Through the hardest of times
The stars bring me a great joy
And a sense of belonging
They make me feel like i can shine too

My life is like a game of hide and seek
Always hiding in the shadows
Waiting for someone to find me
