A flower, oh what a beauty! It’s what humans say when they pass by me Tempted to pluck a petal or a whole me At least they compliment me In a fast-paced world some slow down do notice me But do they appreciate me? The efforts, the scars that mark the endurance? See i don’t just grow in pieces then bloom all at once I come from a dark dry rocky ground Where there is no hope no joy With thorns of warriors waiting for me to crack open the ground just so they could spear me back into oblivion I don’t get to choose my sapling whether weak or strong I embrace and appreciate it for it chooses me Whether right or wrong that i will live to see the light of day Throughout the harsh seasons I fix my vision Unshaken with my sorrounding Whether dry or wet, muddy or cracked, thorny or scarced I know I’m not cursed So i focus and hope up in the sky For the sun to shine once more in my eyes I still fall down after making it so high A wildflower seeing failures weighing on my successes These tough times though my petals shed in despair I still hold on to the vision And grow again in the midst of division In the end of it all i blossom once more As you stand to watch with awe The glitters return the gaze of my stars.
