That thing we all crave for,
acceptance, validation
Call it what you will
.
That wisp of affection
That shapes our realities
I craved, till I caved
.
The darkness in my heart
I survived and lit my skies
With lanterns of hopes
.
Empty words, I filled
As I willed
Till they breathed life
.
In them I found a life
They ended my strife
With me
.
Behold, mirror to my soul
I hold
I see some scars
.
There is pain in me
And a little bit of vanity
But its not ugly
.
Somewhere in twilight,
Between my fears and wits,
I grew up.
