Flower in the Rain

The flower embalms me

As life seems to cease existing

The flower opens to the light

After days of being in the dark

The light is faint

But the light is there

But will the light last

Or will it be quenched again

But what is this

This is a new kind of darkness

It seems as if a rainstorm

Has just touched the flower

The flower doesn’t know

Or understand

What is happening

Quite the tsunami of feeling

Quite the tsunami of fear

But what’s to be afraid of

It’ll only hurt a little

The pain is brief

And the flower will be watered

The flower wants to wilt

The pain so unbearable

But the pain comes with a new feeling

The flower begins to blossom

But why is this

Why does it blossom

In a time of pain

In a time of new beginnings

Oh wait

The rainstorm is already over

That was quick

But wonderful

The flower feels new

The flower feels fresh

And the flower only hurts a little

But that was the best rainstorm

The flower had ever seen

Always remembered

Always loved

Always pictured

Under that beautiful full moon
