My Sunflower

hypersensitivity,

clichéd roses imaged him,

one she didn't like,

but loved.

extrovert,

bright sunflowers portrayed her,

one that she loves,

but hates.

extrovert,

bright sunflowers imaged you,

one that shies away,

sticking to the sunset,

the night

and

the rain;

one she thought wouldn't like her

and walk away.

hypersensitivity only gifted her clichéd roses,

until you became that certain sunflower;

dear he was everything she's not

and you're everything she is.

she's everything you are

and he still isn't everything she is.
