my disco ball
I will not shrink for love.
I will not dim my light to fit inside someone else’s shadow.
My heart deserves a steady flame, not a fleeting spark.
I vow to choose the ones who dance with me,
who laugh with me,
who grow with me.
If he cannot stand in my glow,
he does not get to dim it.
I am radiant, I am requited,
and I will wait for the love that shines back.
