Sometimes I want to feel beautiful and appreciated and loved
But it’s midnight
And the sun is around the world and I am here and in the mud
I want to feel the breeze in my hair and the snow on my lips
I want to feel what it’s like to be kissed by a boy who knows how to kiss
I want to dance but no one to see
To yell at the stars and tell them to shine brighter for me
I want to look down and see my toes in the sand
And a warm cup of coffee being held in my hand
The hair that blows in my face, I want it to shine
I just want you to say “you’re doing just fine”
But my emotions torment me, especially late at night; they make me doubt
Who am I? Who are we?
I have no color, no animosity
But what I can do is say to you, that I have tomorrow and we have forever
Because right now it’s midnight, and like the sun, I can only shine so bright
And those who can love me and appreciate my being
Are cozily sleeping, and dreaming and seeing
So free me, free you, free us, and when you wake up, tell me
That I am all you’ll ever need
