Who are you
when you're alone
and free from judgement?
Do you still let yourself dance
to the beat of your heart?
Who were you
before they stopped you from spinning
and wishing on dandelions?
Did you sing to the music
made up in your soul?
Who will you be
when you wake up tomorrow
and don't let them break you down?
You'll find your warmth in the sun
and let them stumble in the shadows.
You'll shine in the spotlight of your reality,
drowned out by the applause of your foes.
You're a brighter star than their darkness
and your light will illuminate the good in them again.
Who you were is special,
who you are is healing,
and who you will be is three times as powerful.
