Photo I took of a sunflower
“Come out for me my sunshine”. Oh, I could never ask
For only you can decide when you’re ready at last
I get that it’s scary, all the unknowns before you
The hatred from those who insist that you choose to
I’ll wait, patient, t’ill you’re secure shining your great light
For I know it to be peaceful, warm, lovely, and bright
It’s a shame hiding is necessary protection
Just know that as you are is genuine perfection
The only shame would be to not live authentically
Remaining silent, convinced content in misery
“Come out for me?”. No. You can only come out for you
Share with the world what is beautiful, wholesome, and true
