You're my Sunflower..!!

You dance in my dreams like a drifting ghost,
My joy, my ruin—my cursed, cherished host
 
Ever since fate carved your shape in my skies,
You bewitched me with storms in your soft eyes.
I yearned to speak—yet silence wove a chain,
A year crawled by, then you appeared in pain.

You came to me when you had lost your light,
While I stood tall, my stars in fullest height.
I veiled my moons, eclipsed my loyal skies,
Yet found my heaven in your shadowed eyes

You broke my heart not once, but twice with ease,
Then patched it up with soft, repeated pleas.
You claimed you liked me — yes, you did,
But I doubt it was as fierce as in my heart I hid.

I say you’re special, but it fades in the air
You nod, but I wonder if you’re truly aware.
You say I’m special, yet I feel so unseen,
A wilted laurel waiting, stripped of its sheen.
Is hope a sin — to dream that you'd be mine?
For though I'm praised, your love I can't divine
 
Admired by many — a blessing, it's true,
Yet cursed by fate to not be loved by you.
Hope is a lantern I carry through night,
Though its flame flickers, I hold it tight.
 
You're my sunflower, warm in the sun
But I chase you always, and you always run.
When I retreat, you suddenly care,
But why must love be a game of despair?
 
Let’s run toward or walk away true
But this in-between is tearing me in two.
