Wild Flower

By Lara D.

I am a wild flower
Raised in the shrubs
Been feeding from
The light coming
Through the night

My pedals are rough
But shining bright red
Cause my veins runs
Deep into the ground
In this wilderness place

I’m always thirsty
Thriving to survive
Holding on to the ground
In the middle of this
Dry burnt lonely place

I’ve been surrounded
By emptiness and greed
But the strength comes
From the light that
Shines through within
