Blackest night falls hard

The ebony sky mocks me

Alone in the dark

Sleepy moon glows

Faint, tired, a small comfort

It doesn't mend me

Stars twinkle, laughing

Cruel, tauntingly together

Just leave me alone

Alone. Always. So?

No one cares, I shouldn't care

Right? Destined outsider.

So perfect grades, skills

Friends don't matter. Arent success.

Why bother with them?

Why? Why? Why? Why? Why?

A chant goes up in my mind.

A whirlwind of whys

A whirlwind of cries

Stop! tears are weak, helpless, pains.

Only let the sky cry

Not for me, never me

For those who belong, matter

Not for me, never me

The sun may cry, gold

Golden tears of warmth, give life

Tears are not for me

The moon may cry, silver

Beams casting light, false comfort

Comfort to belongers

I may not cry, ever

Doesn't accomplish anything

Doesn't pave success

One day, I'll be glad

I didn't belong with reason

When I rise above

I'll make it then

Belongers won't

And then I'll belong

With people like me

Right? I'll belong. Someday.

Yes. I really hope so.

It can't be a

False promise under the moon

Whispered false comfort

I am not a lark

caged to sing, not a sparrow

To never fly free

Right?
