One sided love

I love you the way sunflowers love the sun,

when they mourn his absence all night long

and wait for his return with their heads down .

I love you the way the sun loves the moon,

when he shines all of his splendor on her

and admires her beauty from afar.

I love you the way the moon loves the stars,

when she doesn’t show up unless they

accompany her in all her grace;

but sometimes I’m scared I’m loving you too hard

when you’re already busy loving someone else
