know yourself

Know yourself

 

When everyone is going insane in vain for the night without moonlight, for the time without sunshine, but you staid the same, you wore sunglasses in the rain because when everyone else was out trying too find the answer, trying to find fame You just focused on remembering your own name.  You felt shame because your to blame for the flame, the flame that went out and caused darkness, the flame you tried to tame, tried to claim. You became the mainframe for that flame and to get to you, you have to use a filename. You just about went insane.

That’s the day you become who you are.

 

When you look through someone else’s eyes and you realize that your size in personality is maximized and you find out that your eyes have been disguised to despise your prized heart, to theorize your surprised spirit. When your allies say more hellos than goodbyes, when your best friends are fireflies, old and wise, that can locate lies just as easy as the sunrise. that when your tired they sing lullabies.

That’s the day you know who you are.

 

When you stand up for what’s right in spite the night before when everyone else gave up but you put up a fight, when there was no wind you flew a kite, when it was pitch black you saw a light. When you look up at the starlight at twilight, and you think that that starlight was your spotlight, it gave you the birthright to ignite a stoplight to all the madness in the world, to stop gunfights making holes in human rights. When you turn off your nightlight at midnight and simply say goodnight.

That is the day you love who you are.
