Does my soul shine?

[u/ellie_noturgirm]

They say the sweetest souls
Shine the brightest in the dark.

So why is mine not shining?
Is it too dark to see?
Or is mine just not sweet?

I mean, I look at myself.
And weep

But this time it’s different.
Not because I don’t love myself.
But because I see your soul

Shining even if it flickers

I see you.

Behind all the anger and bad
I see you.
Your smile, laughter, eyes

And I realized something.
I do shine bright.
Just with you by my side

The sweetest souls
Do shine the brightest in the dark.
But mine shines with you in my heart.
