A broken flower

My heart,
Like a petal on a delicate poppy
Before you

My Strength,
Like the sturdy stem on a sunflower
Until I met you

My Trust,
As honest as the smell of a Rose
Till you sprayed your poison

My Smile,
Beaming like the sun on the heather
Till your rain

Me
A broken flower
For you

Welcome to Passions. A poignant heartfelt write. I enjoyed the poppy petal line. But I find those poppy petals are actually quite resilient, able to withstand even strong winds.
