you looked at me in my eyes,
and there was no fear
of what you'd find.
you saw the ruin left behind;
the damage, and destruction,
the brokenness I tried to hide.
And I waited for you to run;
away from my shadows,
and into the sun.
But then you told me,
there's a special beauty to the night;
because only then can you see stars
and in the darkness
they've created their own light
