I Dimmed First
Every time you were near,
I dimmed my light
So others could see you shine.
Day after day,
time after time,
I watched you glow.
Look how you shine—
brighter than the sun.
It’s funny how__
How you didn’t think twice
before burning me with that light.
Now I can’t even recall
what it feels like to shine,
Which was once...solely mine.
