The night falls over her

Like a gothic wedding veil

 

This is her safe space

This is where she is in control

 

The pestering people aren’t here

Their harassing words are fading

 

In the dark, in the shadowless landscape

 

And in this darkness

Her true self is revealed

 

That she is anything but dark

Anything other then beautifully unique

 

She glows in this space

When she feels safe

​

And when she does

She is seen
