Flower in the darkness

A plant stands withered and alone encompassed in darkness almost unrecognizable as a simple flower. It is passed by with no second glances. Longing for sun not seen. Dreaming of the warmth and light that the sun brought before the darkness took over both the day and night. There used to be a difference. There was happiness in the sun. Now there is sadness, emptiness and such all engrossing lonliness in the deep depths of the darkness. Yet the flower still holds on hoping for the sun to return. The final dew drop falls from the final petal. Yet the flower still clings to life and hope that it will soon be in the uplifting embrace of the sun. As the final petal falls the flower gives it's last attempt at life. It then fades into the darkened corner of it's existance and hides away to never see the sun again. When the sun returns all it shall find is this small withered piece of plant. No longer the beautiful flower it was when the sun last caressed it's tender petals and leaves as it has no life and no hope left within.
