Sunflower
I love the way I always catch her smiling at the most mundane things
Like cooking a meal or talking to a friend
I remember the first time we met
I said “You are like a sunflower”
The way her smile touched her eyes and her eyes met mine
I always feel like a thief when I steal away a glance
Unbeknownst to her
Storing away all those smiles for a rainy day
