Like the gaudy vase
You can't help but be the center-piece
You soak up attention
You demand it
Distracting
Detracting from the important
Because you are sensitive and prideful
And take pride that we indulged ourselves with you
and yet you do not give way
to the finer, yet still important details
that you were said to compliment
But you overshadow them (intentionally or unintentionally?)
With your glory.

Should you ever forget
I might not stay to remind you, I apologise
Love is not a contest
There is no need to compete for my attention.
I will always love you
So don't blind me
