To the girl in this photo.
You're beautiful when you're smiling.
I see you.
Glowing from the apples of your cheeks, I see your kindness.
In the dark roots of your hair, I see your willingness to grow. And in those sun kissed strands, I see your gratitude for change.
Carefully carved into the outline of your shoulders, I see your resilience.
I those big front teeth that you've tried so hard to hide, I see your authenticity.
From the pouring honey of your skin, I taste the sweetness of your passion.
And like the golden hour sun, I feel the warm embrace of your acceptance.
Its you
with the moon in your eyes.
And in this phase, I see the purity of your love and intentions.
I'm sorry that they turned that light out before.
I now see why they wanted some of that glimmer too.
It's you with the moon in your eyes.
And I promise not to let anyone else steal that from you.
