Sunless

I'm a houseplant that survived 
for too long with no water 
(with no love), 
but I had plenty of sun. 
Now the shades are drawn, 
now our day is done, 
now my hope for you is gone. 
On my own, I can 
discover what I need, 
I can figure out how to be, 
I can learn to survive, 
to bloom, to blossom, to thrive.
