When I think of

you,

I am reminded of 

sunflowers.

I am reminded of

soft, yellow

petals tossed to the ground

by those who don't deserve

you.

I am reminded of the 

darkness that you

stuff inside of you,

so you don't hurt others.

My child,

you remind me,

sadly,

of sunflowers.

You are mistreated,

used,

and worth more than you 

know.

I know many sunflowers. They are stronger than I'll ever be.
