Undivided attention.

I love sunflowers, yes.
I love fancy restaurants if there's really good food, yes.
I love our endearment and your voice saying them, yes.
I love seeing you around, in fact, all the time.
I love the gaze of those shy eyes and your mute, poker expressions.
I love it when you call me and just stare intensely.
I love it when you're telling me you're jealous and mad.
I love it when you wanted nothing but my undivided attention...
I used to call you sunshine but you weren't shining in my morning run.
I used to see restaurants with good food but there's no "us" inside...
I used to hear you say our endearments but darn! I never actually heard you call me that.
I used to watch your gorgeous face fixed to me but now it's fixed afar.
I used to get consumed by your silence when you call but it's dead silence after all.
I waited to hear you say "I'm jealous" but darling I guess you never cared.
I used to give you all the time you needed but you weren't really there at the moment.
I used to give you all the love I know just so I can have your undivided attention.
It's all I really want, not a part of you but the entire you, your entire attention.
