I loved you like the sun loves the flowers;
I knew that when if we were too close to each other, it would
only hurt you. So I stayed away, gave you everything I had,
and watched you grow.
I loved you like a child loves a shooting star; I yearned to
reach out and touch you, put you in a jar, and take you with
me, but I knew that you were meant for greater things.
I loved you like moon loves the sun. I would have died every
morning for you so you could shine.
I loved you quietly for so long. One day, though, you stopped
listening,
