The best part about the sun is that it blurs everything out...
Even you.
It blurs your legs, your arms,
Your chest, your clothes,your hair.
It makes it impossible to see your lips,
So it brings my attention to the two small oceans you carry every where with you.
They are like a story, a story I could read all day.
When the sun comes though,
I can't wait to catch a simple word of that story.
When the sun is bright enough,
It makes them as beautiful as a billion roses opening in winter.
Unexpected.
Like you.

Wrote this on the beach on a really sunny day for a girl that won't love herself, no matter how amazing she is.
