I wake up with poems in my head
in search of life
longing for love
but when I see a flower—I remember my own light
that fills hearts and brings joy.
So I smile at the passing strangers,
and I laugh at long queues,
I remember my family often,
and the love I’ve shared with men.
I think of where I come from
and I rile myself up with thoughts of where I want to go
I forgive a lot and let things go
and just really learn to love myself more.
So, look at flowers
especially if they’re yellow
I bet you’ll find yourself laughing a little bit more
