Peace and darkness kept me calm more than fake light!
Alone, I stood!
With enough hate to blow up a block!
Alone, I knew I would be okay with my thoughts and my wants!
So strive still I do!
Continuing on and finding my route!
I'm not in love with the dawn!
The heat from the sun soothed me!
I'm no longer concerned with you or what you do!
The stars shine and then time flies!
So I'll find a place that at peace I'll bloom and prosper, building only just new!
