I hoped that you'd bring me flowers,now I plant my own.


The river I crossed
Got me here
I did anything it took

The tears filled the land
That once was filled with beautiful flowers

The flowers lost petals as I lost hope
The Petals fell
One by one

You left
I was alone
I thought I would never be a lonely flowers

I was standing
A sunflower
In a field
I was surrounded but others
But lonely

My last petal fell
As I was alone waiting
for someone  

That person never showed up
They said it gets better
It didn’t
I was a flower without petals

Dead
But Someone keep watering me

The water help me
It brought me back

The water was happiness
The water was hope
The hope which I never had

Now with the little water you gave gave me hope
I grew petals and grew to shine

Acrossed that river there is one lonely sunflower
As I stand here in the middle of the river
The flower I am
You are too


I’m a symbol of hope and so are you
