Loneliness

Romy van Oostrom

I saw a flower

In a field of grass

That stretched for miles and miles

The flower seemed to be the last

It swayed in the wind

But managed to stay tall

All by itself

I don’t know how it managed to at all

Maybe it knew after a year or so

The rain would help another grow

So it waited patiently for the day

It wouldn't be alone.
