Sunflower Yellow

Sunflower Yellow

A Poem by Dominik D. Rites
"

The only heaven I'll be sent to is when I'm alone with you.

"

Though I do not believe in a god,

Through his many wonders and glorified truth,

I believe one should applaud,

The many sacrifices,

The choices made in youth.


Though I do not belong,

In a church or religious song,

I shall love,

For love is strong,

And I shall stand right,

When I am wrong.


I shall love whomever I choose,

And hope that one day,

That love- I will never lose.

In this,

I shall pray,

That maybe there come a day,

Where my love will not be in secrecy,

Where I will be heard and not seen,

And where my love will not reside in a dream.


I may not read a bible,

Or remember every hymn title,

But I feel just as others do.

I smile because my love is true.

I cry when I’m feeling blue.

I laugh and scream too.


She is my world,

And I want to be hers,

And we do everything that others do,

Only we are sunflower yellow,

And dandelion hue,

And all the others are roses red,

And violets blue.
