How do you create meaning from nothing
How do you conjure up words that sting
Like trying to describe sour
Or giving someone a flower
You know it’s possible
You just don’t know how
Or where to begin
Or what
So I will start with a sunflower
A yellow flower, that spends hours
Facing the brightest thing it knows
Natures optimist
I’m no botanist
But did you know that sunflowers
Will face east until the sun arrives
Always striving
For the light
And I like the message that this entails
But this goes deeper than the surface
I am going to go off the rails
And give up on saving face
I want to be the human version of a Sunflower
I want to surround myself with Sunflowers
I want to be showered
In sunshine,
And spend my hours
In starlight,
Waiting for mornings light
So even when it seems like there is nothing
Just know that nothing has meaning
Nothing can at least become waiting
Waiting for the rising
Sun to come
Because who wouldn’t want to become
The human version of a Sunflower
