You gazed at the darkness
That surrounded me but
You didn't run away like
Everyone else, you told
Me " I love the night sky
With its stars and all but
I love this more because
You can be the star that
Lights up your heart,
You just need someone to
inspire you to find that light"

And in an instant tears soaked
My soul and I heard a beautiful
Sound, the child in me laughing.

You helped me find that light.
The smile of the child in me.

You inspired me to see the
Beauty in the way I stood, the
Way my petals withered, the
Way I shined.

In a world full of roses,
You picked me and made
Me feel like i was the most
beautiful daisy you've ever seen
