Poems for Her

Sunflower

I swear
she'll always be
the most
beautiful flower for me

And that is
the main reason why
i don't want to
pick her up

I want her to
stay alive
blooming, enthralling
and lavishly elegant

Perhaps
it would cause me pain
but whatsoever
i want her—
the way she deserves
and used to be

Besides
I'm just fine
though that's
not okay

She deserves
to be happy and free
to choose someone
apart from me.
