Born After Dark

They think the dark made me this way. It didn’t. It just recognized me. I was raised on engines and candle smoke Promises kept, not words you spoke Learned real early who stands their ground And who goes quiet when it counts Saints watched from broken glass Pagan hands taught me how to last No heaven waiting, no hell below Just a code you keep or you outgrow I don’t scare easy I don’t beg I don’t forget who taught me where I stand I wasn’t saved I was shaped By nights that never looked away I don’t shine I endure I was born after dark, that’s true Blood remembers roads I’ve never seen Names that survived by leaving clean Exile taught me how to move Stay unreadable, stay loose They carried night like a second skin Turned hunger into discipline No throne, no crown, no chosen fate Just the strength to outwait They look for light I look for truth Those are not the same pursuit I wasn’t saved I was shaped By nights that never looked away I don’t glow I remain I was born after dark, unchanged After dark After dark I learned who I am After dark I’ve seen loud men fold in silence Watched bravado lose its balance Power don’t announce its name It waits and lets you fail I don’t need rage to make a point I don’t confuse noise with choice If I move slow, it’s not for fear It’s because I’m already here You call it shadow I call it home Some of us weren’t meant to glow I wasn’t saved I was shaped By hands that didn’t look away I don’t burn I don’t bloom I survive what light can’t move I don’t ask I don’t prove I was born after dark So were you Sleep if you need to. I’ll still be here.
