I see the sun start to set
Feel the chills numb my stem
Feel the life leave my leaves.
The reason for my existence that darkens once again.

However, I will wait, wait for you to find your way back to me.
I know that when tomorrow comes, it will all be okay again.
I find joy in you leaving as I know it gives me the opportunity to greet you again.

You give me the strength to be bold and beautiful.
"You are my life, and so I shall count the hours till my life arrives to cuddle me in rays of sunshine and tell me that everything is alright."
Sincerely, The Sunflower
