I sat
and I waited
While writing through tears
I realized
that I never needed you
You were just a stage in my life
Destined to happen
Destined to come
To destroy
You were a hurricane
I soon thought I knew
why hurricanes were named after people
But
I shouldn’t have let you hurt me
I should’ve stayed strong
For I am a star
and you are darkness
That matters because
while no one acknowledges it
we all know
that stars can’t shine without darkness
And the darker the darkness is
The brighter that little star will shine
