The Drawing

Expression of You

By L.I.EPublished 5 months ago 1 min read

Wanting a conversation with you so I drew a flower

Each petal represents longing for hours

The grass beneath it represents the amount of times I thought about you

To you it's just a random picture

But did you see the sun?

A representation of the joy you make me feel

The joy that peaks through the clouds of sadness

No one else should be responsible for your happiness

But sometimes we can help each other make the day feel a little better

So I will still send you a random picture

So you can laugh and wonder why

Why I sent it

And why do I care about you
