Flowers need sunlight to live
Humans do as well
I guess I haven't been getting enough
Because I feel like I'm dying
Wilting away like a flower
A flower needs water to live
I've been crying so much
Why am I not surviving then?
As the days go by
My petals fall off one by one
My leaves have started to droop
The green fades away with time
I may be just a person
But sometimes I feel like a flower
Not the blooming kind
Just the kind that wilts until it's turned into nothing
Some day I'll grow
I'll find the way for me to thrive not survive
It may take years
But eventually I'll get there
Maybe I'm an annual flower
I go through a rough patch
But with time I'll improve
I might be a flower
But when the storm comes
I'll stay standing
Because I've prepared
And grown with all of the hard times
Just like a flower
