I told you not to give me any flowers back then. I told you that I have no use for its temporary beauty that only eats up space on the kitchen counter. But you insisted and gave me a stem of sunflower then. And before I refused, you said to me...

A stem of a rose could be at par, but I couldn't bear to give you its thorns. Take this instead as a reminder that you make me happy. That you are my sunshine in this messed up world.
