Be A Sunflower

By AuthenticallyMe
Be A Sunflower

Like A Young Sunflower, 

I once bent toward every flicker of Light;

chasing warmth wherever it moved. 

But like the bloom in full, 

I've learned to face one direction;

Steady, letting the light find me,

learning I never needed to chase it.

Growth taught me when to reach,

and when to root and now I know..

the difference between 

bending and breaking.
