I Shine On

i shine brighter then sun, 
my essence is a lighter in the night.
i fight for what i believe,
because i feel relieved of this stress.
i compress my feelings into my core.
tighter then a bumper to bumper traffic.
i stump her with my words,
leave her speechless with charm,
i promise i mean no harm.
in the nature of my mind, 
i find i am the kind one.
i bind, and intertwine our hearts together.
i feel this has the potential to last forever.
I will shine on, whether you will be 
by my side or not.
